What you can expect

Jump into a colourful hour of discovery at Toi Art in Te Papa Museum, where contemporary New Zealand art comes to life for curious kids and grown-ups alike. You’ll explore two levels on a guided adventure packed with eye-catching sculpture, moving images, hands-on surprises and even a playable video game. It’s a fun, easy way to see how artists have told stories about life in Aotearoa since the 1960s.

With friendly hosts leading the way, you’ll meet artworks by Māori, Pacific, Asian-New Zealand and international artists, including plenty of bold contemporary voices. Hear the stories behind new and much-loved pieces, spot something unexpected, and enjoy quality time discovering art that sparks conversation, imagination and smiles all round.
