WHAT IS THE CORBAN ESTATE ARTS CENTRE?
The Corban Estate is a unique arts precinct set in the grounds of the former Corban Family winery. It is now home to a number of arts organizations includ- ing the Corban Estate Arts Centre (CEAC).
CEAC’s facilities include exhibition galleries and a range of studios and spaces for arts activities. There are over 15 working artists with studios on site, and many of these artists are participating directly in our educational programme.

LEARNING EXPERIENCES OUTSIDE THE CLASSROOM
|
Corban Estate Arts Centre has a contract with the Ministry of Education to provide a Learning Experiences Outside the Classroom (LEOTC) Programme.
This programme will complement and enrich classroom learning, through providing memorable, specific, hands-on, interactive experiences within an authentic arts environment.
Our programme aims to address achievement objectives for all levels of students (Years 1 -13). We plan to facilitate effective partnerships with schools and classroom teachers which will lead to successful outcomes for all students.
Thanks to Ministry funding, we are able to offer this programme to schools at an affordable rate.

WHAT DO WE OFFER?

We offer a comprehensive choice of modules. There are 5 different modules to choose from. All of them will assist teachers in delivering the curriculum by providing learning experiences in our unique arts environment.
THE 5 MODULES ARE:
1 – THE GALLERY EXPERIENCE AND EXHIBITION WORKSHOP (changes every 5-6 weeks)
2 – HEROES OF HISTORY (available all year round)
3 – OPEN STUDIO AND ARTISTS EXPERIENCE (available all year round)
4 – REDUCE, RE-USE, RE-CREATE (available all year round)
5 – SYMBOLS OF IDENTIY (available all year round)
Please note that the gallery exhibition changes every 5-6 weeks so the workshops change accordingly, to complement the gallery exhibition.
We aim to develop effective relationships with teachers in schools to enable learning experiences that are integrated into classroom learning. To this end, we will work with schools prior to a visit to ensure there is a shared understanding of the goals and outcomes. Some of our workshops are offered in partnership with the Auckland Council, ‘Trash to Fashion’ and The Pacific Arts & Cultural Centre.
Additional workshops can be requested, please contact our Arts Educator to discuss your requirements.
