Venue Hire
Host your next art class, workshop or info session at Magenta - and support a not-for-profit while you're at it.
Magenta is a fully stocked creative studio in the heart of Nelson's CBD.
Hiring our space helps fund the work we do alongside artists with lived experience of mental distress - so your booking goes further than the four walls.
The studio is available from 4pm onwards Monday to Saturday, and all day on Sundays. Daytime hire is sometimes possible too - see below.
