This is an introductory workshop and a contemporary take on the traditional Maori art form of tukutuku. In this introductory workshop we hope to inspire you to get weaving and tell your story through tukutuku.

Tukutuku are found in Wharenui (meeting house). The walls are adorned with Tukutuku panels each telling stories of our ancestors.

What: Story telling through Tukutuku
Date: 2nd July
Time: 3pm to 5pm
Where: The Incubator
Cost: $75

Tukutuku are made with various materials such as natural fibres like kiekie and pingao. That are then traditionally dyed with flora and fauna native to Aotearoa. We will have some of these materials on display at the workshop so you can see and feel the different textures and familiarise something new.

The patterns of tukutuku have symbolic meanings, in this workshop you will learn the basics and go home with a handout to continue creating at home.

This is a full price workshop in The Incubator’s Matariki series. The other available workshop is subsidised.
