Event detail
Get creative with your whānau at our free drop-in art-making sessions every weekend and during school holidays from 11am to 3pm.
September activity: Kia kaha te reo Māori!
Celebrate Te Wiki o Te Reo Māori!
Join us in making Gallery-themed, te reo Māori picture-dictionary bunting to hang in Kids & Whānau Create or to take home. Help everyone learn more kupu (words) Māori to use in the Gallery.
Borrow one of our Feel your way through the Gallery activity cards. Go on a kimikimi (hunt) around the Gallery for artworks that make you mahira (curious), āio (calm) or even rangirua (confused).
