Keeping it creative at QT Wellington

Earlier in the year, QT Wellington launched an initiative called ‘Your Art. Our Rooms’ where the hotel challenged the art community to submit artwork to decorate the bedhead walls on nine brand new guest rooms. After receiving over 270 entries from local and national artists, the hotel chose to redesign all 25 rooms on the fourth floor with bespoke artwork in its newly launched Gallery 4.

Guests staying in the Gallery 4 rooms can enjoy walls, balconies, and ceilings all covered with unique artwork from 19 New Zealand artists.

“Gallery 4 signifies QT really making our mark and identifying ourselves as a part of our country’s artistic community,” said Garth Solly, general manager, QT Wellington.

“We are thrilled we have an art collection where guests can fully immerse themselves in established and up-and-coming homegrown talent, as Gallery 4 boasts works by Angus Muir, D Side, Johnson Witehira and also fosters the next wave of artists.”

With the launch of Gallery 4, the hotel has also dropped ‘Museum’ from its name, now operating just as QT Wellington.
