Get creative at Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki!

This July school holidays, the Gallery is proud to bring you a hands-on School Holiday Programme. Delivered by our inhouse team of artists, this programme will engage your child with a wide variety of art practices and themes. These school holidays we will be running an exciting programme of paid activities inspired by New Zealand art. The children will learn new skills as they examine old-school techniques to create their own unique artworks. This programme is aimed at children aged between 7–12 years old and is intended to be all about experimentation and fun. Our classes will run from 9am–3pm, children are to bring their own food and warm clothing in case we venture outside for lunch. We ask that you please contact us if your child has any special needs.
