Auckland Museum has some fascinating events coming up during Matariki, including a #Maungawhau hikoi:
Wananga Maunga: "An off-site conversation
between archaeology curator Louise Furey, tangata whenua Pita Turei, and
volcanologist Jan Lindsay to make connections between collections and their
relevance in Te Ao Maori.
Special focus will be on
archaeological specimens found on Maunga Whau; what our mountains represent and
the significance to Matariki; and the present state of knowledge of volcanic
risk in Tamaki Makaurau."
The Wanaga Rongoā will be led by Ewen
Cameron, Charmaine Wiapo and Rob McGowan, and focuses on native plant identification
and regeneration, and medicinal properties of native flora and fauna.
Numbers are limited: To book please email Nga Remu with ‘RSVP
Maunga', 'RSVP Rongoa' and/or 'RSVP Puoro' in the subject line or ph 306 7070
