Black Building

We are proud to introduce you to our new Community Facility the “Black Building”.

Two years in the making, we have redeveloped the old Foundry, previously located at University of Canterbury campus into a multi-use modern space, designed with our local community in mind.

It has a large main space that can hold up to 350 people, a children’s/therapy space, a studio, and a meeting room. We are hoping that this dynamic new building will provide our community with some much needed affordable, comfortable and versatile spaces for hire.

Rooms can be hired individually or in combination. We welcome both one-off and repeat bookings. All prices include GST.

If you’re part of a community group or not-for-profit, get in touch about our discounted rates. Church facilities are not hirable for 18th or 21st Birthday parties.
