Personal Giving
The Christchurch Art Gallery Foundation is still on a mission: to build a collection of great art that Christchurch is proud of.
Bill Culbert's BeBop was purchased with funds raised by Foundation Partners.
A collection of opportunities. Art that tells stories and honours the past, that reveals the present and compels us to imagine and debate the future. This regenerating city has multiple and complex priorities so we want to partner with people and families who can help protect our core business – collecting.
The new Christchurch will be a city of opportunity and renewal; we have the chance to shape its culture and we’d like you to help us. We have all benefited from past gifts to Christchurch Art Gallery Te Puna o Waiwhetū. Now it’s your chance to speak to the future and make wise investments for those who come after us. Help us to tell the Christchurch story with art – our past, our current transition and the re-imagination of our future.

Art absolutely feeds my soul. It makes me feel like a real person. After a year of living with no art I didn’t realise what was wrong until we got it back. We thought “That’s what the problem was!” We just missed it so much.
Art makes me feel complete, connected, it’s just everywhere for me.
Gala Dinner 2020 – more details coming soon
In October 2018, over 450 party people gathered together at our inaugural Art Do and enjoyed an immersive night of creative experiences, bringing together the greats of art, fashion, food, design and music. In doing so they raised an incredible $90,000 towards Christchurch Art Gallery Te Puna o Waiwhetū’s bold mission of becoming a catalyst for ambitious creativity in Ōtautahi.
National Crowd-Funding Record
The Foundation pioneered the successful Back the Bull campaign in 2013 for Michael Parekowhai’s magnificent Chapman’s Homer, ensuring this work remained in Christchurch. And in 2017 we beat our own record & captured the hearts & minds of Cantabrians to purchase a Ron Mueck work for Christchurch
