Free parking. A full day of arts and entertainment for the whole family.

Kids Arts Festival is a one-day annual event of free activities for the whole family. This year’s theme, ‘You are the future’, invites children and teens to explore the future and share their ideas through the arts. It is a great opportunity for the whole family to engage in a range of activities such as participating in free art workshops and enjoying multi-cultural children's performances. Local schools will be presenting lively art, photography and multimedia exhibitions.

Workshops include: futuristic jewelry, robot building, Chinese crafts, Maori and Pacific weaving, African drumming, futuristic graffiti sculptures, dance performance and drama. Most workshops are suitable for 5 to 14 year old children and teens. They can drop-in to any of the workshops and stay as long as they like.

Bring a picnic or purchase lunch from the selection of tasty food available on site, which you can enjoy in our beautiful park-like environment.

This event is supported by Auckland Council and The Trusts Community Foundation (TTCF).
