Hospice Tairawhiti Long Lunch & Wearable Arts
Unleash your creativity over the summer holidays and be part of something extraordinary in Tairāwhiti!
We’re calling on students, adults, creatives, makers, dreamers, and first-timers to start designing and making NOW for the Wearable Arts Fashion Awards at the Hospice Tairāwhiti Long Lunch.
In 2026, Hospice Tairāwhiti is hosting a community fashion event encouraging our local community to get creative. This long-lunch fundraiser at The Vines will feature Tairāwhiti’s very own Wearable Arts Fashion Show.
Open to all ages and all skill levels. This is your chance to design and model something bold, beautiful, or outrageously imaginative, all while supporting a cause that truly matters.

- All Ages – Festival World – 2 x WOW (the real one!) tickets
- Secondary (13–18 yrs) – Extravaganza – $500 Bernina Voucher
- Primary (5–12 yrs) – Circus Circus – $250 Bernina Voucher
