Progression of Māori Art from pre-colonization to contemporary times: an eloquent reflection of social changeAs a key element of cultural identity and a powerful communicative tool, the protection and promotion of Māori art holds implications for health, cultural, social, and economic outcomes. Through an observation of the historical progression of Māori artforms, this discussion will demonstrate how Māori art has reflected not only its historical context but also the concerns and perspectives of Māori through successive generations, surviving today as a vivid, dynamic reflection of Māori realities.

Manu Tīoriori - Waiata (Song) Practice* Waiata Practice is held every Wednesday ** Everyone welcome. Nau mai, Haere mai *
Waiata (Māori songs) is an integral part of Māori culture. It is a fundamental part of all Māori ceremonies and procedures. As such learning and meaning of waiata and how to perform waiata is more than just a fun related activity. It enables participation and helps to understand culture and genealogy through the kupu (words) within the waiata.
University of Otago Wellington’s waiata group is called Manu Tīoriori who started weekly sessions last year as a gentle introduction to waiata for staff and students. Anyone interested in joining our informal practices is welcome - no matter if you’re a beginner or an expert!
Monday 27th June12noon - 1pmWellington Regional Hospital, Level 2Cultural Care Centre meeting room
Shared Kai (Food)The sharing of kai (food) is an important aspect of Māori culture as well as Matariki. This action brings people together and nurtures hospitality and respect.
Matariki is a fitting time for us to host a ‘Shared Kai’ so that we can embrace a culture of sharing, giving and respect with you all - so come along to the Cultural Care Centre to experience a contemporary hangi with us.

Whakaoho te Wairua (Awakening the Spirit)We will explore the traditional old world and spiritual evolvement that is unique to Māori people and their connection with the physical, universal and intangible elements. We will explore the theories and links that Māori acknowledge through customary rituals and health practices and how these apply within a contempory world complimenting both conventional medical models and traditional.

Rongoā (Natural Medicines)
The rising of the constellation known as Matariki on the north eastern horizon marks the beginning of a new season and the Māori New Year. Matariki in traditional Māori society marked an important time of the year. It was a time when the main activities such as food production and gathering stopped and so more time could be allocated to producing creative arts such as the making and playing of Taonga pūoro. More time could be given to remembering and re-learning the whakapapa and lessons taught by ancestors in arts such as healing, cosmology and genealogy.
The purpose is two fold. Firstly, it is to re-inform and re- learn about how to identify Matariki in the sky and the significance it played in traditional Māori society. Secondly, it is to introduce the healing practices which also were learned traditionally during this time. Capital & Coast District Health Board and University of Otago Wellington staff, students and friends, will learn of the importance of Matariki for Māori society today throughout and how this period can set a context in which learning and fun can go together.
