Gus Fisher Gallery

Located in the restored Kenneth Myers Centre and operated by the University of Auckland, this venue functions as a multidisciplinary art space. Visitors go here to view rotating exhibitions, attend performances, or watch film screenings. It serves as a bridge between academic research and public art, focusing on contemporary works and experimental media.

Getting There

The gallery is situated within the central business district of Auckland. From the city centre, it is accessible via a short walk or a brief bus trip, typically taking less than 10 minutes depending on your starting point.

Visit Duration

Depending on the current exhibition and whether a scheduled performance is taking place, allow approximately 1 to 2 hours to explore the space.

When to Visit

Visiting during weekday mornings often provides a quieter experience. As it is an academic-affiliated gallery, it does not typically experience the same extreme crowds as major national museums, though specific opening nights for new exhibitions may be busier.
