Te Tuhi Creative Community Connection

Bring your well-loved clothing to Te Tuhi for free mending and alterations with the NFACT team.

Part of ‘Kohan Zari Ko’, meaning “turning old to gold”, this ongoing project creates a welcoming space for women from refugee and migrant backgrounds to connect through textile practice, skill-sharing and community.

Visitors are invited to spend time in the space, meet the makers and learn more about the project while repairs are completed.

→ Te Tuhi, 21 William Roberts Road, Pakuranga
→ Every second Thursday, 11am–1pm
→ Upcoming dates: 28 May, 11 June, 25 June

This initiative is led by the New Settlers Family and Community Trust (NFACT) and proudly supported by Arts Out East and Te Tuhi.

Arts Out East is a Te Tuhi programme funded by the Howick Local Board.

Check out these artworks from our talented artists in the Term 1 Developing Art Skills class! 🗯

Led by our lovely tutor Olive Breach - these artworks show how students express their imagination while learning shading techniques. The result - shapes and colours turned into creatures and towers!

Term 2 enrolments are open now. Visit our website or our reception to secure your spot!

Stay tuned to see what else our students get up to ♥️
