Ngā Aho Wānanga a tau

Haere mai te pūkenga, haere mai te whakaauaha, haere mai te wānanga. Ka whakakotahi te whānau whānui o Ngā Aho

Ngā Aho Māori Designer’s Network invites warmly our whānau of Māori designers, thinkers, and makers to gather once again for our Wānanga-ā-Tau.

Hosted by Te Aranga Marae in Heretaunga, this year’s wānanga is a time to reconnect, create, dream and celebrate. We will weave our collective mātauranga , practice, and purpose as Māori designers in Aotearoa and beyond and Wānanga on how we can use design to support our whānau, hapū, Iwi and hapori. Over this wānanga, we’ll share kōrero, wānanga, kai and creative exchange.

Te Aranga Marae, 18 Boston Crescent, Flaxmere, Heretaunga Hastings, Te Matau a Maui Hawkes Bay

Your ticket includes:

• Kai from Friday evening to Sunday lunch
