If you’re keen to develop your creative skills and knowledge the Gallery has a range of one off and ongoing learning programmes for residents and visitors to the island.

Waiheke Community Art Gallery is committed to providing a range of learning opportunities for all ages and abilities. We offer workshop experiences that fit a day trip from Auckland right through to the full-time NZ Diploma in Ceramics course – whatever your creative passions, we’ll have the right programme or you. 

DEPOT and Waiheke Community Art Gallery are excited to announce the launch of Wayfind Creative on Waiheke.

A nine-week programme designed to support emerging and established Waiheke-based creatives to build creative pathways and sustainable, fulfilling careers. Starting on 14 February 2025, the programme will combine in-person workshops, online learning modules, tailored mentorship, and ongoing support, equipping participants with the tools and confidence to thrive in the creative sector.

Our Artists in Residence Programme is an exciting opportunity for artists to spend 12 weeks living and creating on Waiheke Island.

At the end of their stay our artist in residence showcase their works in an exhibition at the Waiheke Community Art Gallery.
