Suitable for a broad audience and aligned with the exhibition’s kaupapa.

Pūanga – Matariki shares rich kōrero from across the Pacific Rim about our celestial whānau and the many ways different cultures understand these majestic stars. Though our stories vary, they remind us of the same truth. The heavens hold the memories of our past, the lessons of our present, and the hopes we carry into the future.

This exhibition honours those who have passed, acknowledging the wisdom they leave behind and the responsibility we hold to carry their teachings forward. By looking to Pūanga, Matariki, and the wider cosmos, we are reminded of our deep relationship with te taiao, the natural world.

The guidance of our ancestors shapes how we walk upon the earth, how we care for our environment, and how we nurture the generations yet to come.

Join us for the opening and come together in reflection, remembrance, and celebration of Pūanga and Matariki.
