Toi Foundation’s community spaces are available for not-for-profit organisations, social enterprises, community groups, and kaupapa that align with Toi Foundation’s purpose of supporting a thriving, inclusive, and equitable Taranaki. Organisations and individuals who make a booking agree not use our spaces for commercial, private, or personal events.
We are unable to host music rehearsals, lessons or events, as the noise would likely disturb others. Our spaces are shared and aren’t soundproof, so even quiet music rehearsals can affect the experience of others using the building.
