WAIVE PROGRAM [SPACE HIRE]
The WAIVE program supports artist-led and cultural activities that are akin with THE WALLS’ vision of a vibrant community, a creative hub, and a shared space for artists. The aim of the WAIVE program is to set aside the space for one night events and exhibitions when there’s time and space! If you have a great idea for a one-off event or series of happenings then we’d love to hear from you.
VOLUNTEERS

Volunteers are required to dedicate 3+ hours per month to assist with invigilation, opening events and public programs.
