Hire the Venue
We have two gallery spaces of different sizes that would suit a variety of events available for corporate and private hire.
Our Community Creative space can also be hired for meetings and practical workshops.
OUR COMMUNITY CREATIVE SPACE
The learning hub within the gallery is a creative space that supports our kaupapa of community engagement with the Arts.
This space is used for workshops with school students of all ages from the Matamata-Piako district providing opportunities for students to reflect on the artwork on display and make personal and wider connections. The activities in this space aim to encourage critical thinking, story-telling and to provide an opportunity to understand other people’s experiences.
The workshops aim to complement what the education sector provides in delivery of the arts and ngā toi learning areas of The New Zealand Curriculum. They will be structured around the following strands - understanding the arts in context, developing practical knowledge, developing ideas and communicating and interpreting – and aim to build upon the mahi that is already underway within our schools.
Recently we have also held drawing workshops for adults in this space as well as holiday workshops for younger students.
A warm and fully self-contained area, this space can accommodate up to 25 people.
If you would like to use this space, please fill in the above form and we will be in touch with availability.
