Planning a visit

1.programmes to fit

We work with Kaiako and kura to develop bespoke learning experiences for ākonga aged 0 to 18 years. Let us know about your particular topic of enquiry and we will endeavour to adapt or create a programme that meets your needs.

2.book early

The programme is popular so book early. Most programmes include a workshop component so allow a morning or afternoon for your outing – about two hours for most age groups. The Gallery opens at 10am but school groups can visit from as early as 9:30 am.

3.the basics

Adult helpers on a visit will usually be fully engaged assisting in the classroom workshop. Painting aprons are provided, workshop sessions can be messy.
For morning or afternoon tea, bring a box with drink bottles and snacks. A tap with filtered water is available. Please let the educator know if you want to photograph or film your students in exhibition spaces.

4.parking

Parking is available at the Wilson Parking facility car park in upper Moray Place and lower Moray Place and the DCC carpark just down from First Church. A bus can be parked on Stuart Street just above the upper Octagon beside St Paul’s Cathedral.
