The Sarah C Gallery in Mangawhai Heads is a small space showing Sarah C artworks. The Gallery is an old road-side-stall which used to sell produce to local people. We have tastefully converted the space and now show a variety of pieces in the range while retaining the integrity and rawness of the 1970’s building.
The Gallery is open by appointment and for special occasions or by invitation events. To take part in these, it is best to be part of the Sarah C database so we can contact you via email.
Gallery open most days 10am to 4pm. Group tours are welome and there’s plenty of off street parking in the orchard.
To arrange your visit, please contact us.
“This is Belle, our family pet. She’s not too good at painting but she loves to meet customers visiting the Gallery. She would love a pat and cuddle when you arrive but won’t be offended if you shoo her away! Belle is usually the first to meet you but don’t worry if you arrive and no-ones around, we won’t be far away.” Sarah C
Update: August 2022, Our hearts are full. Welcome home Peggy. We hope to give you the best life. Falling in love again. 
We also stock a changing collection of other artists’ and designers’ art and craft pieces, ceramic artworks and creative pieces that Sarah C has handpicked. These pieces can be purchased at the gallery or in our online shop.
