This is the vision of Hannah Hsieh, Raven Whatu-Joseph, Theo Struve & Friedman Struve. They wanted a free & accessible place for youth to learn, create & enjoy all things art, music, words, food & imagination. In 2021, they successfully secured seed funding from The Ministry of Culture and Heritage Cultural Sector Innovation Fund & Art Soup began as a 3 month pilot version of that vision. It's 2024, and Art Soup is in its 3rd home and is much-loved hub for Māwhera youth.
