WITNESS THE EXHIBITION 2000 YEARS IN THE MAKING

The Ancient Greeks: Athletes, Warriors and Heroes exhibition from the British Museum’s world-renowned collection from the Ancient Greek world, is the largest selection of ancient artefacts ever loaned by the British Museum to New Zealand.

Matariki is a special time of year. Matariki is a star cluster that appears in our skies in the winter month of Pipiri (June-July) and marks the first month of the Māori lunar calendar. It is a time of new beginnings, reflection, gathering together and celebration.

The exhibition is for all ages. An opportunity to learn about Whanaungatanga, Matariki & the Maramataka. There are static displays and activities for children. The venue is on a bus route and is close to the Papatoetoe Railway Station. Plenty of car parking.

A special flock of Manu Rere, traditionally-made flying kites, lands at Hui Te Ananui a Tangaroa for their first migrating flight away from their Hokianga nest.

Wanda Gillespie is an Auckland-based artist working with wood to create bespoke abaci. Her contemporary interpretations of this ancient counting instrument explore and expand upon the creation of value, systems of measurement, and encounters between material and mystical worlds.
