Te Waka Tūhura Elam Galleries
We encourage Elam students to present work or curate public exhibitions at our student-centred, professional-standard galleries.
Te Waka Tūhura Elam galleries are professional gallery spaces where students can show their work, curate exhibitions, and host events. A team of students run the galleries and ensure they are welcoming, accessible spaces where our community of artists can share their work with each other, the wider University and the general public.
