Featured Events in Auckland in May 2025 (May Updated)

Join us for a talk with Canadian-British author, activist and journalist, Cory Doctorow. It promises to be an insightful hour-long talk delving into his popular works of science fiction, as well as his non-fiction, The Internet Con, which has the kind of synopsis that both terrifies and intrigues - it's a thoughtfully researched and equally scathing interrogation of how Big Tech platforms, operating under the guise of connection, trap people into having their personal life and relationships commodified. He is the author of many other books, most recently Picks & Shovels, A classic thriller setup: the little guys vs corporate skulduggery (The Daily Telegraph); Red Team Blues, a science fiction crime thriller; Chokepoint Capitalism, non-fiction about monopoly and creative labour markets; the Little Brother series for young adults; In Real Life, a graphic novel; and the picture book Poesy the Monster Slayer. We're so excited to welcome Cory into our store to talk about science-fiction, AI and the future of technology, it's is an area of conversation we're planning to have more of. This is a free event but numbers are limited, so please reserve your ticket and keep us posted if you're unable to make it. Information Source: Unity Books Auckland | eventbrite

Ride It Keep it: GTGO Group ride + keep the bike! Totara ParkWant to get into biking but don't have a bike? Thanks to the Auckland Council Climate Grant, Got To Get Out has developed a program called 'Ride It Keep It' to get locals riding on recycled bicycles! ** This invite is to people of all ages, as long as you can already ride a bike but dont have one and will use it. It will be an easy grade bike ride! ** The mission of this program is to reduce Auckland's climate impact, by making it easier for people to ride a bike instead of drive. We are further helping the environment by diverting waste out of landfill and scrap, giving hundreds of old bikes a 'second life' and keeping them in use. A team of mechanics and volunteers at the Got To Get Out Workshop (Glenfield Auckland) are hard at work fixing bikes, and we will bring a selection of refurbished bikes to these free rides. Who gets a bike? Anyone who does not already have a working bike, and will use the bike to get around ideally instead of driving! You can only get one free bike from our event series. You can come to any of our events in this series, you can only get one free one. About the ride: Please note this will be an easy grade bike ride in Auckland. We will ride in Totara Park which will take about 2 hours in total. Details: - Meet at 9:45am (come earlier if you need a bike) as we will ride at 10 sharp - Meet Totara Park Carpark (Redoubt Rd) / (look for the Got To Get Out trailer) - Bike fitting starts once all riders are there, - Bike ride starts when everyone is on a bike, we will do a quick skills session - There may be an opportunity to 'swap bikes' and try a few, though the decision of 'who gets which bike' is made by Got To Get Out staff - Ride ends 1pm thereabouts once we've done the easy trails. QUESTIONS: Do I need to know how to ride? YES! Though it's OK if it's been a while. This activity is not a formal 'lesson', so you need to know how to ride - even if it's been a while since you were last on a bike. There will not be time to teach you how to ride if you have never ridden before. A basic skills session will happen at the start of the ride, but the main purpose of this is to show you how the free bike/s work, as opposed to teaching how to ride. Can you come with your own bike? Absolutely! If you own a bike already, come along and ride too! There are 10 tickets for BYO bikes, and 10 tickets for those who need one. What bike can you keep? You are welcome to 'try out' a few different bikes, but ultimately it will come down to who fits which bike. It would help us if you tell us your size (height) before you come along. We will allocate bikes based on size and intended usage etc, and the decision of who gets which bike is the decision of Got To Get Out staff. We make no promise that your exact size bike will be here but will do a our best to fit each person to a bike. Donate a bike? If you wish to donate a bike, this is a great time to pop along and give us a bike! Just message us prior so we know if the bike is suitable for our needs. Helmets: We will provide helmets for the group ride, but not to keep. We are not funded to provide helmets to keep sorry, so you need to sort out a helmet yourself. It's best you bring a helmet. If you get a bike? If you get a free bike, you need to take it away ON THE DAY. So think about how you will transport it, get it home, lock it up. Also, expect to have to do a survey about your likely use of the bike. If you wish to rehome the bike within one year, it's expected you offer it back to Got To Get Out to gift to someone else. Any questions, please email robert@gottogetout.com You've #gottogetout riding! Thank you Auckland Council Climate Grant. Information Source: Got To Get Out | eventbrite

Since its establishment in 1974, the Chartwell Trust has championed the importance of creative visual thinking, shaping an expansive collection of contemporary art and an enduring programme of philanthropic and education support. Its work is driven by a commitment to explore the role creative thinking and making plays in our lives and its potential to create positive change. This exhibition of archival material from the Chartwell Collection Trust and Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki celebrates 50 years of their visionary activity. The Chartwell Collection was initially developed as a loan collection with the Waikato Museum of Art and History, with the first work acquired in 1974. In 1982 Chartwell established the Centre for Contemporary Art (CFCA) in Hamilton, which, in addition to housing the Collection, provided an alternative art space committed to growing an audience for contemporary art, staging 134 exhibitions until its closure in 1994. Since 1997, the Collection has been on long-term loan to Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki.

Thank you for your time and expertise… I learnt a great deal. The pace was perfect and I loved the sensory extension…” A lovely atmosphere generated by Jennifer's joy in botanical art and her ability to include and enthuse students I love Jennifer's teaching style very clear, well structured but relaxed, positive, encouraging and informative “Jennifer was awesome, took us through step by step, especially about the observation aspect and construction of the subject, I would go to her classes again.” This class will change how I approach drawing, for the better I discovered that I really enjoyed the act of focused observation… I know that attempting to draw something will make me much better acquainted with my subject’s characteristics. The guide was excellent and I will use that going forward - especially useful for me when trying to articulate what makes a plant different from a somewhat similar variety. Click now to book!
