Activities & Experience

The Physics Room

While you’re near the Arts Centre, be sure to visit The Physics Room, a contemporary art space tucked around the corner on Montreal Street. 

Based in central Christchurch since 1996, we assist art practitioners with resources and opportunities to achieve a higher level of professional and creative development, and encourage a greater acknowledgement, understanding and value of contemporary art among New Zealanders.

Our goal is to actively seek links between the arts and other areas of cultural production and to involve art as a contributing voice in wider intellectual, social and political debate.

The Physics Room is a charitable trust.
