Standing up for you

Arahi, Musician

We are Hawke’s Bay’s champion of culture and creativity.

We advocate to keep the arts at the forefront of decision-making across Hawke’s Bay. We stand up and shout about the good stuff the arts brings to our community, our wellbeing, our economy, and our outreach into other parts of Aotearoa and the world.

Whatever stage you are in your career - emerging or established, a maker, creator, curator, collector, supporter, enabler or educator - we’re there for you.

Ngā Toi Hawke’s Bay drives positive change. We spearhead and support initiatives to build industry awareness, share knowledge and frameworks, and create on-going opportunities and fresh pathways for all levels of creative engagement.
