Building skills.
Building friendships.
Building community.
The Mangawhai Shed brings people together to share skills, learn, create and contribute to our community.
More than a workshop
What is this place?
We are more than tools and machines. We are people. We come together to learn, create, contribute and enjoy each other’s company.
And when we work together, something happens that reaches beyond the Shed
learn
Shared, grown and passed on.
Connect
Connections that matter.
Contribute
Making a difference together.
Belong
A place for everyone
why it matters
What difference does it make to Mangawhai?
What we learn, make and share at the Shed becomes useful beyond our doors.

Skills shared
People passing practical knowledge and confidence on to others.
community

Repairing, adapting and making rather than simply throwing things away.

Different generations, backgrounds and experiences working alongside one another.
Whatever brings you through the doors
You’re welcome.
Come to learn, make, contribute, solve problems, enjoy the company — or simply see what we’re about.
Need something made, repaired or some practical advice? Come and talk to us — we may be able to help.
