A recent incident linked to nearby construction has caused flooding in part of our building. While our gallery spaces and sections of the wider building were affected, all artworks remain safe – thanks to the swift response from our team.

We already have a clear plan in motion to restore and enhance our spaces – ensuring Te Tuhi returns better than ever. 

Impact on artists & programming

This disruption has directly affected a number of artists whose exhibitions were either cut short or postponed. Supporting our artist community through this period is our highest priority, and we’re working closely with those impacted to ensure their incredible work will be seen and celebrated at a later date. 

If you missed our most recent exhibitions, they’ve been beautifully documented online.

What’s still open

While the gallery itself is temporarily closed, parts of Te Tuhi remain active:

→ Public classes are continuing in alternate venues 
→ A limited number of event and venue hire spaces are still operating
→ Te Tuhi Café is open Monday to Saturday, serving your favourites as usual.

Any booking queries, please contact venuehire@tetuhi.art.

What happens next

We’re fortunate to have comprehensive insurance in place and a wonderfully supportive board – ensuring our team can remain all hands on deck as we work towards reopening. 

→ A revised programming timeline will be shared in the coming weeks.

How to support us

Many of you have asked how you can help. Don’t be a stranger! The best way to support us right now is to:

→ You can also follow us on Instagram and Facebook, and sign up to our e-newsletter here.

We’ll confirm our reopening date as soon as possible. Stay tuned here, on social media, or sign up to our newsletter for updates.
