About

Māpura Studios is a creative space offering art and art therapy courses to our community with disability. Over 200 students regularly attend each week. We strongly believe that creativity changes lives. Our amazing artists face challenges that range from Cerebral Palsy to Autism to Blindness, and everything in between. They produce some incredible work that inspires their tutors who themselves are practicing artists and hold degree level qualifications. We are a charity that recieves no government funding, we rely on grants so we can subsidise our fees and ensure that our artists can come along to the studio. PLEASE SUPPORT US by purchasing a book. All funds raised go directly to running the studio. Thank you very much, or as we say in NZ, Ngā mihi.
