Life in Vacant Spaces (LiVS) - Breathing Life into Empty Corners of Ōtautahi Christchurch
At LiVS, we envision a city teeming with creativity, community spirit, and entrepreneurship. We believe that the key to a vibrant Ōtautahi Christchurch is already within its borders, waiting for the right spaces to flourish.
What We Do:
-
Connection: We link owners of vacant land and buildings to individuals and groups bursting with innovative ideas to utilise these spaces.
-
Support for Creatives and Entrepreneurs: Whether you’re a community group, an artist, a social enterprise, or a startup, we're here to bridge the gap. Our mission is to provide you with the temporary spaces, tools, and resources to turn your vision into reality.
-
A Charitable Trust with a Mission: As a charitable entity, our goal isn't profit. It's progress. We are dedicated to fostering a city where imagination thrives, and every dream gets a fighting chance.
Join us, if you own a vacant property or have a groundbreaking idea, let's collaborate and make Ōtautahi Christchurch the city of endless possibilities!
