Creative spaces that are part of the Arts Access Aotearoa network are inclusive and dynamic places where people who experience barriers to participation can make art, or participate in artistic activities such as theatre, dance, circus, music, film and creative writing. Participants include people who are Deaf or hard of hearing; have learning, neurological or physical impairments; experience of mental distress; age-related vulnerability (senior citizens or vulnerable youth); and cultural isolation 

Arts Access Aotearoa works with the Creative Space Network to strengthen and advocate for each organisation. This includes professional development, funding advice, and relationship-building across the sector and in the wider community.

There are more than 50 creative spaces in communities throughout Aotearoa, Some were established in the 1980s, others more recently.
