Tayla Hartemink has designed a series of unique stamps featuring beautiful native manu and ika, perfect for decorating cards, and printing fabric and clothing. Meanwhile, Rosalie Koko guides whānau through the process of 'elei printmaking, a traditional method of hand block printing from Sāmoa.

A limited amount of materials will be provided, but we encourage you to bring your own T-shirts, tote bags, tea towels, or other fabric items to personalise with these stunning designs.
 
Tayla Hartemink (Tūhoe) is a multi-media artist, illustrator and creative workshop facilitator based in Te-Whanganui-ā-Tara. Tayla’s work is rooted in a deep connection to whakapapa and indigenous storytelling. Her work incorporates graphic design, painting, print-making and traditional motifs. Through her artwork she hopes to inspire and empower people to connect with Te Ao Māori.
 
Rosalie Koko is a multidisciplinary artist, whose work spans across carving, painting, and textiles. She is of Ngāti Kahungunu and American Sāmoan descent. Her love for her cultures has lead her to specialise in many different artforms, including whakairo, siapo/aute, kōwhaiwhai and weaving. She uses elements from these artforms in her work to enhance the mana of her communities.
 
Suitable for all ages— drop in, get hands-on, and make something colourful to take home!
