Join us for our monthly Open House, where the objective is to create a space for informal encounters where new connections between our in-house team, the artist, our patrons, and the local community can develop.
For the first time this month, we'll gather after dark when our little sake bar opens. So you're very welcome to join us after work.

This month we'll be talking with resident Ruby Brown about her first exhibit and making activities underway as part of this first instalment of her residency project, Repetition, Meditation & Movement: Thinking & Filling Gaps. Refer to our interview in progress > here for background. Artist Sav Hopkins will also join the conversation. Like Ruby, Sav works extensively with found objects and materials.
We'll also be leafing through several amazing books from our community library by First Peoples writers, including recent publications by Māori scholar and psychiatrist Dr Hinemoa Elder, Māori master storyteller Witi Ihimaera and Aboriginal scholar Tyson Yunkaporta, to name a few.
We'll have our usual nighttime menu available for drinks and snacks. Find out more at our Eat + Drink page > here.
