Established in 1989 The Papermill is a safe, vibrant, creative space where artists with intellectual disabilities create handmade paper and works of art from natural fibres and recycled paper.
Visitors can browse studio the shop and meet the Papermakers and are encouraged to watch the paper making processes, or have a go themselves under the watchful eye of one of the skilled tutors.
Paper art has a special focus at the Papermill; techniques and textures are explored and experimented with, showcased as an annual exhibition and winning wearable art.
The Papermill delivers meaningful work experience for people with intellectual disabilities. The facilities in Whangarei are available to the public as an educational and tourist attraction.
