Overview
"Nestled down at the iconic Town Basin in Whangarei, this lovingly restored historic villa houses some real delights. Home to the thriving Northland Society of Arts, who were established back in 1989, they continue to host exhibition space for artists to hire, along with a boutique shop filed with unique pieces of local artworks."
Notes for Cardholders
"Entry to the Gallery is free but a donation is always appreciated. Run as a non-profit by mostly volunteers, your donation would help us to keep supporting Northland Artists."
Standing and Queuing
Generally there are no queues. If you are purchasing and need to sit, there are seats next to the till.
Level Access
There are two ways to access the level access pathway to the Gallery. From the main entrance, take the brick path to the right and follow to the side door of the Gallery, alternatively this path can be accessed directly from the car park on Reyburn House Lane.
Distances
Our building is not large and there is plenty of seating throughout that you are welcome to use. The Town Basin Car park is located next to the Gallery, possibly 50-100m away from the entrance.
Urgent Toilet Access
We have 1 accessible toilet on site and an accessible public toilet located about 100m away.
Disability Assist Dogs
We comply with the NZ law with respect to Disability Assistance Dogs. Dogs are welcome into the gallery. There is a water bowl on the front veranda and the staff will indicate the nearest place for the dog to relieve itself.
Essential Companions
We do not require payment to enter so your companion is more than welcome if they want to purchase something or not.
Difficulty Accessing Visual Information
Through the training, the staff are well-informed about adapting their communication and assisting individuals who are blind or have low vision. They can assist you to a seat and guide you to a toilet if required.
Difficulty Accessing Audible Information
Through the training that the staff have done with the Hāpai Access Card, they are aware of how they can modify how they communicate with you. This includes making sure you can see their face when speaking, speaking clearly, use of pen and paper and being patient. The staff are aware of the NZ Relay service, so please use this if you think it appropriate when ringing if needed.
Hidden Disabilities
The Staff are fairly new to hidden disabilities, but please speak with them about how they can assist your needs.
