The Roche Street building has been made safer for taonga, visitors and staff following seismic strengthening work.

All going to plan you'll be able to experience Waipā’s precious taonga, including Uenuku, once again in late October.

Come and experience some printmaking activities at the Te Awamutu Library!

We have teamed up with the Te Awamutu Library to put together an awesome expo for you after school on Wednesday 16th of July.

Have a go on a 192 year old printing press which was made before plastic, the electric motor or the light bulb had been invented.
It's even older than Morse code!
You will set up and make your own unique print that you can take home.

After that, you can make your own zine at our zine workshop, or try out one of the other creative activities we have available.

No registration required, just join in and have a go!
