About
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. Exhibitions are always free to visit and both galleries are wheelchair accessible. 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. This has been largely due to hard working and enthusiastic volunteers and committee members, our heartfelt thanks to all those who have contributed to our success, including our funders.
It is also the venue for Kumeu Live, a not for profit music night hosting highly acclaimed local and internationally musicians.
Our Objectives
“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.”

The Retail Gallery
Our retail area, (a small area of our gallery) small though it is, delights our visitors, who love to purchase locally made unique items, rather than commercially produced goods. Continual growth of sales of these arts and crafts (created by our members) helps supplement our income and allows us to continue to support our local artists. We, as always, strive for greater economic self sufficiency over time. |
