The Arts Centre Bookshop:booksnz operates as a privately owned independent retailer.
We are located in the historic ex-Canterbury University complex, now a hub for local artists, craftspeople, and tourists situated in the heart of Christchurch, New Zealand.



Besides being a supplier of text and conventional books to local schools, colleges, universities, libraries, and health organizations: our in-house retail focus is on all things
Indigenous to New Zealand.



The people, history, culture, landscapes, and tourist attractions of New Zealand are highly unique as well as fascinating. Our goal is to have the largest database of titles from Kiwi authors, photographers, and artists as they gain larger prominence on the world stage.



The wealth and variety of New Zealand and Maori books being released now exceed all previous levels of quality and talent. We feel fortunate to be able to offer such a vast array and hope in the future to expand our horizons to include more titles from and relating to our neighbours around the South Pacific as well as Australia and the frozen heroic continent of Antarctica
We invite all comments, opinions and suggestions because it is only through our customers that we can improve.
