The Christchurch Art Gallery Te Puna o Waiwhetū is a striking contemporary building in the heart of the city, known for its flowing glass façade and innovative design. It houses a diverse collection of New Zealand and international artworks, ranging from historical pieces to cutting-edge contemporary exhibitions.

Behind the Art Gallery is the Canterbury  Museum

The museum features displays on Christchurch and Canterbury, including Māori heritage and Antarctic exploration collections. During my visit, it was undergoing redevelopment, so only a small selection of items was on display.
