Physical Address

Te Puna Toi is usually based in the Arts Centre. Following the February 2011 earthquake, however, the Arts Centre has been closed indefinitely. Te Puna Toi will, in the meantime, be operating out of the Theatre and Film Studies Programme at the University of Canterbury. Film Archive Interloans will be available to be viewed here and can still be organised through Te Puna Toi. We are also looking to set up the popular Medianet facility here, and will let you know when it's up and running.
