What’s on at the Hub

Thursdays, 9:00AM - 12:00PM

Every Thursday our dedicated community of volunteers gets together in our vibrant workshop space to make thermal blankets out of chip packets for rough sleepers and anyone else in the community who needs a helping hand to keep warm. Find out more about the Chip Packet Project and how to volunteer.

Drop off your unwanted electronic products & tech at our e-waste amnesty.

E-waste is anything with a plug or battery! Includes: laptops & computers, mobiles, tablets, routers, modems, household & lithium batteries, small home appliances, whiteware, heat pumps, printers, and more. Brought to you by Maungakieie-Tāmaki Local Board.

We’re opening the doors to our Zero Waste Hub for a day of hands-on creativity, sustainability, and exploration.

Step inside our studio space to discover how salvaged materials are transformed into new creations — from functional design to experimental builds. Take a guided site tour for an inside look at our operations and the unique resources available at the Hub. Join our pop-up workshops to get creative using repurposed materials, and connect with a community of makers, artists, and waste innovators.

Got a broken appliance or a hole in your favourite garment? Bring it to our free Repair Café!

Our skilled fixers will help troubleshoot and have a go at repairing just about anything, giving your beloved treasures a second life instead of sending them to landfill. If your item can’t be saved, don’t worry—we’ll dispose of it responsibly for free.
