Visit our Chinese Community Hall for an open day and self-guided tour, and join in with the many cultural activities on display.
The NZ Chinese Association dates back to 1937 in Christchurch. The Hall provides a meeting place and a sense of belonging for our members. Our people are the hub of our organisation - we came to a foreign land to make it our home, learning to integrate but also to hold on to our grassroots.
We are showcasing the unique identity of early Chinese migrants by exhibiting the historical Chinese New Zealander experiences and their stories. We reflect on the hardships and highlights of the early Chinese settlers who chose to call New Zealand their home, to the present day - celebrating cultural diversity in Ōtautahi Christchurch.
Join in these classes and the other activities throughout the day.
