Art Galleries
Established in 1995 as a not-for-profit society, Waiheke Community Art Gallery - Te Whare Taonga o Waiheke, promotes the visual arts and arts-related activities on our island and to visitors from Aotearoa and across the world.

Open year round the Gallery has a diverse exhibition and public programme with annual visitation of around 60,000.  Our two national award exhibitions (Walker & Hall Waiheke Art Award for 2D work, and the Perpetual Guardian Small Sculpture Prize for 3D small works) attract entries from all over New Zealand.

The Gallery has a shop that features ceramics, jewellery, glass, books, and artworks from across Waiheke and around New Zealand.

  • Perpetual Guardian Sculpture on the Gulf, our major biennial event and New Zealand’s leading contemporary outdoor sculpture exhibition set on the spectacular Matiatia coastal walkway.
  • Post graduate Diploma of Ceramics programme in partnership with Otago Polytechnic.
  • Waiheke Art Map connecting visitors with artists’ studios and galleries across the motu.
