The Brooklyn Community Centre is a community centre at 18 Harrison Street, Brooklyn, just south of Wellington's central business district. It is owned, run and maintained by the Brooklyn Community Association, a volunteer-run association with a committee elected each year, and paid staff look after the day-to-day running. Activities include table tennis, pilates, karate, arts and crafts and dancing. The centre also runs before school care, after school care and school holiday programmes.
Brooklyn Markets are held quarterly on Saturdays from 12pm to 4pm. A recycling programme accepts liquid paperboard, plastic and metal lids, household batteries and more. The centre hosts events and children's parties, and its venues can be hired. A monthly newsletter is published online and in print. Our pick in Brooklyn for a neighbourhood hub with markets and classes.
