About Us

Penguins for Penguins is operated entirely by the team of people who care for the King and Gentoo penguins at Sea Life Kelly Tarltons Aquarium in Auckland, New Zealand. We have created a sustainable brand where the public can enjoy unique art created by our penguins and in return support local penguin wildlife. Our process is sustainable with recycled card from fish boxes used to create blank canvases for painting and for our business cards. Recycled packaging made from recycled materials is used to package and protect items for their safe delivery.

Advocating for wild penguins is very important to us and we love to share our knowledge of penguins, sustainability and conservation to help care and preserve our local wildlife. We do this through education by chatting to visitors at our aquarium about penguin conservation and through daily public talks. We also volunteer for and support penguin wildlife charities in a variety of ways including participating in Hoiho breeding monitoring undertaken by the Wildlife Hospital, and sharing native penguin information on how the public can keep our local penguins safe. Raising awareness and profits for Penguin Rescue NZ and the Dunedin Wildlife Hospital is something we are very proud of and by purchasing one of our unique paintings, you are helping us to do this - thank you!
