The quintessential cultural venue of the city is housed within grand Gothic Revival buildings and linked by a maze of courtyards. Originally the Canterbury University College, the buildings were gifted to the people of Christchurch in 1974 for use as a community arts centre. It is now a gathering place for artists, craftspeople and performers, with more than 40 shops, galleries, artists and artisans' studios, cafes, theatres, cinemas, restaurants and bars. During the weekends, it hosts a bustling arts and crafts market. The Centre is also the site for festivals and live events.
