Kumeu Arts

Organisation

History

Member for
12 years 2 weeks

Kumeu Arts is a buzzing community arts centre, not for profit incorporated society and registered charity that offers classes, untutored groups, events, workshops, festivals and exhibitions. The building (located behind Kumeu Library) was once an Auckland Council works depot, but has since been transformed into a fully functioning, fit for purpose arts centre with two galleries and a gift shop selling art and crafts made by local artisans. It is also the venue for Kumeu Live, a not for profit music night hosting highly local and internationally acclaimed musicians.

Exhibitions are always free to visit and both galleries are wheelchair accessible. Kumeu Arts objectives are … “To promote and foster the Arts in the South Kaipara area of the Rodney District. To enrich community life, through cultural activities for the well-being of the community.”
