Sightseeing
See art from the DPAG collection and touring or temporary exhibitions from local and international artists. Nice gift shop and coffee next door makes this a great way to spend a few hours!
If you want to venture further afield, you can't go past the Orokonui Eco Sanctuary - a beautiful cafe and gift shop, and if you want to it is well worth the $20.00 entry fee (Adult) for exploring a native bird paradise. (Tip: Walk down to the tallest tree in New Zealand, a Eucalyptus!)
