Raglan Old School Arts Centre is an arts organisation at 5 Stewart Street in Raglan, Waikato. A good arts organisation succeeds because it creates space for people to make, see, and experience art together. What makes an arts organisation valuable is that it lowers barriers: it makes art accessible, it provides places for local artists to show work, and it builds community around creative practice. People visit arts organisations for different reasons—some come to see art they wouldn't see otherwise, others want to take part in making something, some are looking for a gathering place where art and creativity matter. A good arts organisation becomes meaningful because it reflects the community's creativity and because people feel welcomed and invited to participate. Raglan Old School Arts Centre serves the Raglan community from Stewart Street.
