The Vivian

An important part of The Vivian experience is the ability to connect extraordinary art with ordinary people. In ways that educate, invigorate, and perhaps even liberate. 

'Art is a funny old thing. We love it when you love it. We even love it when you hate it. But we can’t stand it when you ignore it. That’s because we believe art has the power to connect us as human beings in ways that are compelling, joyful, and transformative.

'Situated in a purpose-built contemporary art space about an hour north of Auckland, we have 3-acres of landscaped ground to explore – and events, talks, and performances all year round.'
