Better Late Studios
Auckland, December 2023 - December 2024
Better Late Studios: a playful, welcoming space for creative experimentation.
It’s never too late to start something new, try something different, or create things just for the fun of it.
Our studio in central Auckland was a year-long prototype of a place for artists of all levels to gather, collaborate, and share ideas without pressure. It was also the culmination of a decades-long pipe dream to start an artist-run-space from scratch. Along the way, we held numerous workshops, hosted craft markets, and supported local artists by providing accessible studio space in a cost-of-living crisis.
Better Late was about giving ourselves permission to try, to make mistakes, and to make Auckland a better place to be, even if just for a while.
Better late than never, right?
