An International Women’s Day Celebration

Join us for a powerful, one-day celebration of women’s voices, creativity &amp; collective strength.

Sunday 8 MARCH - 10:30am - 6pm

Justice in Her Words is an interactive International Women’s Day programme centring wāhine stories, amplifying diverse voices &amp; creating space for connection, expression &amp; action. Designed to be accessible, intergenerational &amp; culturally inclusive, this event invites the community to gather in a civic space to reflect, create &amp; celebrate together.

What to expect:

Poetry &amp; Performance Workshop - 
Skill-building sessions for emerging writers, offering confidence &amp; creative development.

Live Poetry -
Experience performances from five incredible emerging wāhine voices. 

Chalk &amp; Typewriter Poetry Activations
Write, reflect &amp; respond to the achievements of women past &amp; present. Share your favourite quotes &amp; contribute to a collective public expression of strength &amp; solidarity.

FREE Girl Power Collage - 
Sit, snip &amp; create.

Pot-Luck Picnic &amp; Open Mic - 
Bring a plate, bring your friends, bring your whānau. We’ll close the day with shared kai, open mic moments &amp; vibrant kōrero across generations.

Discover the pioneering women after whom the rooms of Ellen Melville Centre are named. Explore themes of equity &amp; empowerment inspired by Lisa Reihana’s striking sculpture 'Justice', installed on the building’s exterior, honouring Ellen Melville herself, a lawyer, advocate &amp; champion for women. The scales are tipped in favour of women, symbolising both history &amp; hope. 

This event is about visibility. It’s about storytelling. It’s about claiming space.

Come to be inspired.
Come to be heard.
Come to celebrate the women who came before us &amp; the ones shaping the future.
