About Social
Social is a contemporary art gallery run by industry professionals, committed to fostering creativity and inclusion while encouraging young people to engage with the arts. We present exhibitions featuring both emerging talents and established artists whose work reflects a high standard of artistic value and integrity.

Through thoughtfully curated exhibitions, events, and projects, Social creates space for the community to engage with the arts as a vital part of cultural and social life — recognising its enduring influence on how we see, connect with, and understand the world around us. In addition to our exhibitions, we offer youth programmes and internships that provide hands-on experience in areas such as curating, communications, and public programming — helping rangatahi and early-career creatives explore meaningful pathways into the arts.
