Toi Maori Art class Open to Everyone!

Create an understanding of Maori Culture through art, in a safe and fun space.

Bring a willingness to share and wananga (discuss openly) about Toi Maori (Maori Art), Matauranga Maori (knowledge and understanding) and Te Reo (Language) All of these aspects orbit around each other and interconnect.

We will be making tukutuku, learning some contemporary raranga (weaving) techniques and also kowhaiwhai boards.

My practice is part of a solution to connect cultural understandings to artistic outcomes.
