Hokinga Mahara, Titiro Whakamua: Ngāhuia te Awekōtuku and Patricia Grace

  • Hannah Playhouse 12 Cambridge Terrace Wellington, Wellington, 6011 New Zealand (map)
 

Esteemed kaituhi Māori, Patricia Grace (Ngāti Toa, Ngāti Raukawa and Te Āti Awa) and Ngāhuia te Awekōtuku (Te Arawa, Tūhoe, Ngāpuhi, Waikato) reflect on their long writing careers, accompanied by personal and archival imagery taking us back through some of the pivotal events of the past 40 years in Aotearoa. 

Hosted by Matariki Williams (Ngāi Tūhoe, Ngāti Hauiti, Taranaki, Ngāti Whakaue, Te Ātihaunui-a-Pāpārangi), this special occasion celebrates the role that wāhine Māori have played, and continue to play, in the reclamation of Indigenous narratives.

The ‘Ticket + book’ bundles are available until 12:00pm on Thursday 7 November. Unity will be at events across the festival for book sales and signings.

Discounted ‘Ticket + book’ bundles are available for a copy of either Hine Toa by Ngāhuia te Awekōtuku, or, Bird Child by Patricia Grace. If purchased, your book can be collected from Unity Books, 57 Willis Street, Wellington in advance of the festival, or at the event from Unity's book table.
