Our ongoing exhibition 'Also my hometown: A 30 year retrospective of artwork by Onlie Ong' is a comprehensive exhibition of the painting and ceramic practice of artist Onlie Ong. Taking place at the historic 3 Victoria Road building, this exhibition is not one to be missed! We have also moved the Depot shop, Toi Toa to 3 Victoria Road, so be sure to stop by and view the collection.

Depot Artspace - RE: OBJECT [2024]
Our upcoming exhibition 'Re: Object' marks the halfway point in the inaugural two-year Object Maker Aotearoa Fellowship designed to nurture and empower ten contemporary object makers working across craft-based and found materials. Focusing on material play alongside conceptual insights, artists explore the rich intersection between craft, design and visual arts and bring the object into the spotlight. 'Re: Object' showcases a diverse group of artists working with new ideas, pushing material boundaries and testing new ways of making. Join us on Saturday 23 November, 2-4pm for the exhibition opening as we reopen the gallery at 28 Clarence Street, Devonport.
