XCHC is public creative hub for people to connect through showcasing, events, exhibitions, and co-working/producing work together.
XCHC provides affordable open-floor studio spaces. Currently, jewelry makers, photographers, musicians, fashion designers, builders, architects, painters, and social enterprises work in the space and we're always accepting applications!
XCHC connects creative practitioners and surrounding disciplines to provide a safe space for people to learn from each other, trial, prototype, and fail with the support of the community.
XCHC cafe and bar connects the general public where we receive valuable feedback and can cultivate business interests and develop our creative selves.
XCHC offers a full loft apartment for artist residencies but also people visiting Christchurch who want to connect with the local culture and creative scene.
XCHC has an Emerging Artist Fund that helps cover the cost of trialing our Make, Showcase, Share & Stay ecology. Apply on our website if any of these sound interesting to you.
XCHC collaborates with local and international institutions such as galleries and museums, universities, cultural institutions and independent Christchurch based artists and performers. Update description

Rented space there for over a year and it was probably one of my most encouraging experiences. Friendly, warm shared atmosphere with people who care...

The XCHC is such a relaxing place to go and have a coffee and a chat. I have told my friends about the place and I would certainly go back there...
