Artworks is a community arts and cultural centre in Oneroa, developed from what was once a timber outlet owned by Tony Pope. It was bought by Auckland City during the reign of mayor John Banks for $2 million.

Among its facilities are the Waiheke Library, the Waiheke Community Art Gallery, the Waiheke Community Cinema, Artworks Theatre, Ajadz Indian restaurant, Tanya Batt's Once Upon an Island Story Centre, the office of the Waste Resource Trust, the Waiheke Visitor Information Centre and Whittaker's Musical Experience.

The Waiheke Community Radio Trust has recently acquired residence in Artworks and hopes to have community radio broadcasting from Artworks again soon.
