Māngere - Ōtāhuhu Arts is an initiative from the Māngere Ōtāhuhu Local Board to support and enable community-led arts activities throughout the Māngere - Ōtāhuhu area.
It involves having an Art Broker, whose role is to identify, curate, programme and enable community arts activities. The Art Broker works with local artists and creative organistations to offer support in the development and delivery of their creative ideas and projects, whether this be assisting with funding, marketing, or helping to find the right location or people to work with.
THE ARTs BROKER
The Arts Broker is interested in hearing from you and learning about your creative projects, even if they are just an “idea”. It could be dance, film, craft, visual arts, music, kapa-haka, spoken word, digital arts, a publication, a performance or an exhibition. Our current Arts Broker is Renée Tanner.
It all starts with a conversation about what you want to do - from there, together we work out what advice or support you need.
Have an idea?
You don’t need to have everything figured out. Tell us what you’re thinking and we can help you explore funding, venues, collaborators, audiences and what might happen next.
