2024 Matariki Workshop

Join us as we explore the essence of Matariki in this workshop, where you'll create meaningful rituals that honour the past using wisdom bestowed upon you by a past ancestor, celebrate yourself and the present using nature as your inspiration, and embrace the future. Guided by the wisdom of a whakataukī shared in Dr. Rāngi Mātāmua’s book, Ka rere ngā purapura a Matariki—which speaks of Matariki’s frost and snow bringing people together in unity and love—this experience invites you to connect deeply with the spirit of the season. You will need: A piece of wisdom shared with you by an ancestor A tray or plate with a selection of handpicked selection of materials found in nature such as - flowers, stones, shells, sticks,.
