Heralded in 1888 as ‘the first permanent Art Gallery in the Dominion’, Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki remains the largest art institution in New Zealand, with a collection numbering over 15,000 works. These include major holdings of New Zealand historic, modern and contemporary art, and outstanding works by Māori and Pacific Island artists, as well as European painting, sculpture and print collections ranging in date from 1376 to the present day.

Today the Gallery sits adjacent to Albert Park in central Auckland.
