Mesh and Hamilton/Media
Key to the success of the trust and its mission to support the creation of new art works for the city will be a positive and ongoing collaboration with Hamilton City Council, Waikato Tainui, site developers and community groups.
An ongoing, symbiotic relationship with HCC will be a central aspect of the Trust’s success. The Trust will provide Council with art works that are commensurate with the City’s vision for art and in many cases the Council will then own and care for them, incorporating them into the art collection of the City.
PRIORITIES FOR THE TRUST

> Inspire, stimulate and challenge residents and visitors
