The Arts
Lopdell Precinct is an arts and culture hub in Titirangi, West Auckland. It is home to The Upstairs Art Gallery, Te Uru Waitākere Contemporary Gallery, Titirangi Theatre, Flicks Cinema and McCahon House Trust.
Te Uru Waitākere Contemporary Gallery
Te Uru Contemporary Gallery plays a vital role in the art ecology of Tāmaki Makaurau, which extends to Aotearoa and beyond.
We offer a diverse and dynamic programme of exhibitions and events that seek to enrich our community and contribute to discourses in art.
Our commitment to education throughout the Gallery's programming ensures that these efforts can be accessed and enjoyed by all.


The Upstairs Art Gallery
This not-for-profit community art gallery is on Level 1 of Lopdell House and is charged with promoting the arts at a local level. With numerous exhibitions every year, covering a vast range of mediums, artistic skills, ages and community groups, a trip up the stairs is always worthwhile.
Titirangi Theatre
Titirangi Theatre is an amateur group presenting quality live theatre. Located in the Basement of Lopdell House, performances regularly sell out, so book early! The group’s extensive wardrobe is available for hire from the Treasure House.
The McCahon House Trust
The Trust was established in 1998 to recognise the life and art of Colin McCahon. They run a prestigious artist residency and have preserved the McCahon House as a place for the public to visit. The administration team has an office on Level 1 of Lopdell House.
Flicks Cinema
Flicks Cinema is hosted in the Theatre at Lopdell House. Enjoy new release art-house and documentary films from all over the world. Flicks has comfortable seating and quality laser projection and sound, with a bar and lounge open for evening sessions.
