What’s on

Permanent Collection

Nestled in our gardens along walkways and at the Huakaiwaka visitor centre, discover the Auckland Botanic Gardens’ permanent collection of sculpture. This growing collection is a legacy of commissioned work and past sculpture exhibitions, of generous benefactors and the vision of garden curators who have incorporated artwork into their horticultural work. The Gardens embraces and responds to new ideas about art, storytelling, interpretation and cultural expression to reflect Auckland and its diverse communities.

Pick up a guide to the works when you enter the Gardens. Each piece has a story and a connection to their garden surroundings. Whilst you walk this beautiful 2.5km trail, enjoy the Gardens, a work of art in themselves.
