About this event

  • 2 hours

Matariki is a time for gathering with those we love to reflect on the past year and make audacious plans for the year ahead.

This year’s exhibition themes are remembrance, celebration, and future dreaming: if, at first, we can imagine, then we can create the world we want to live in.

'Ka mua Ka muri' - "walking backwards into the future" this whakataukī references Māori perspectives of time, where past, present and future are viewed as intertwined. We reflect on the past and use the wisdom gained from those reflections to inform the future.


Opening Evening: 6-8pm Wednesday 19th June

Alberton House hours: Wed – Sun
10.30am – 4.00pm
