Nau mai haere mai – welcome to Square Edge Community Arts the home of all things creative!

Square Edge Community Arts are a not-for-profit organisation with over 40 years of experience working with and within our community. Square Edge are governed by a community board and have a team of four passionate staff all working part-time hours to manage our arts centre building, galleries, gallery shop, tenancies, and a wide array of programmes and events. We house, host, and offer self-representation and the opportunity to build sustainable incomes to our eclectic, vibrant, colourful and hugely diverse community.
