Reviews
Such a fantastic place - some of the most unique pieces I’ve ever seen. The Artists appear to have taken a very long time to put these displays together.
The Dowse Art Museum, located in Lower Hutt, is a vibrant hub of contemporary creativity and cultural expression.nnThis dynamic institution showcases a diverse range of artworks, spanning mediums, styles, and perspectives. With a commitment to fostering dialogue and innovation, The Dowse is a vital platform for both emerging and established artists.nnThese images offer a glimpse into the compelling exhibitions and installations that grace its walls, inviting visitors to immerse themselves in a world of artistic exploration and inspiration.
This is a lovely little place to come and have a little look around. I can tell there is a lot of real effort put in to all the art and there are nice spots for the kiddos too, cafe aint half bad ither.
We went to The Dowse yesterday for the first time - recommended to us as a must-do in the Wellington region by friends and I would definitely agree with them!nnThe staff were very helpful, pointing us to the best route to experience the Dowse, and also holding our umbrella and making sure we didn't leave it behind!.nnThe exhibitions were interesting, fun, humourous, and thought-provoking. It was a wonderful mix of visceral experiences Chromaflage, and My River Goes With Me as well as our history and aspirations for the future Nuku Tewhatewha, and Māori Moving Image ki Te Awakairangi and just a general good old giggle Droop.nnReally enjoyable, and appreciated the two EV chargers in the carpark too.
Love the Dowse. Always changing, beautifully themed spaces. The cafe is pretty good too!
