About this event
Widely recognised as New Zealand’s most ‘notorious’ street, this neighbourhood has a long and fascinating history. Artists and creatives have always felt at home here amongst the more colourful characters of Auckland.
The walk will start at the Symonds Street Cemetery where we will discover the resting places of several very influential New Zealanders.
Public art is a key feature of this precinct – sculpture and street art beautify the laneways and alleyways that branch off the main strip. We’ll discover works by many of New Zealand’s leading street artists as we walk and talk.
After a quick coffee stop, we’ll head to the cutting-edge contemporary galleries on K’Rd to be challenged and inspired. Plus more!
