Cathy McIntosh from Maungakiekie-Tāmaki Local Board

JANUARY 31 – February 2, 2020
Whānui 2020: At the Foot of the Maunga Workshops - Te Ipu Kai
Hosted by Auckland Arts Festival
FREE

At the Foot of the Maunga, part of Auckland Arts Festival’s Whānui programme, is a project where the neighbouring suburbs of Tāmaki and Maungakiekie team up to transform public space. This exchange of ideas will see large-scale installations created within the communities and displayed in Onehunga and Panmure.

In association with TGTB Charitable Trust and led by artists Bobby MacDonald and Chantel Matthews, a series of workshops have been created to engage and invite the community to come along and assist in the making of these sculptural installations.
