As part of our Matariki 2023 celebrations, join exhibiting artist Kiriana O'Connell as she shows how to weave a rourou (small basket).

&quot;Nāku te rourou, nāu te rourou, ka ora ai te iwi.&quot;&quot;W﻿ith your food basket and my food basket, the people will thrive.&quot;This whakataukī embodies one of the philosophies of weaving (and life!) - everyone has something to offer and working together brings wellbeing to all. This workshop will include a kōrero around harvesting and tikanga associated with mahi raranga. Participants will make a rourou (small basket) over two hours. We’ll have refreshments on site throughout the event.This is a free event, all (ages 14+) are welcome to attend!
