Sharing poems, stories & kai. In association with Samoa House Library

With Hana Pera Aoake & Friends
Saturday 1 July, 6 pm -8 pm
Samoa House Library, Level 2, 283 Karangahape Road, Auckland 1010

Thinking through the late Waikato poet, Trixie Te Arama Menzies’ poem, Harakeke, this will be an evening of sharing poems, stories, and kai to help celebrate Matariki. This reading will invite readers to consider this idea of harakeke as a means of weaving together the ways in which people from across Te Moana-nui-a-kiwa have observed Matariki for millenia.
