Imaginary friends have proudly been designing and creating the Smokefreerockquest artwork for over 25 years.
Each year we are faced with the exciting challenge of creating fresh artwork that makes the event feel special. We take pride in working with local New Zealand based artists to create original art for the event. Recently we have been working closely with Auckland based illustrator Miki Nozomi who has created the illustrations for 2024, 2025 and this years neon lit retrofuturistic art. Check out some of Miki’s work online and see it at her exhibitions coming up in Auckland and Taranaki this year.
