Past Event

Please join us for a one-day workshop on Te Tiriti o Waitangi, where Māori and Tauiwi will learn about the historical context within which Te Tiriti was signed, as well as the contradictions and confusions arising from the two different versions (English and Te Reo Māori). Facilitated by Suzanne Menzies-Cullen of Tauiwi Solutions, the workshop uses a variety of media and learning tools to help people explore what their stake is if Te Tiriti is to be honoured, and aims to create a space for dialogue about historical background, relevance and the implications for us today.

There are limited places available for this workshop. To register, please email admin@blueoyster.org.nz or call 03 479 0197.

Please note, this workshop will occur within the exhibition space, therefore Blue Oyster Art Project Space will be closed for the day to the public to ensure safety and comfort for the those attending. 

Tauiwi Solutions, facilitated by Suzanne Menzies-Culling, Anna Parker and Marie Laufiso, was formed in 2006 as a facilitation and workshop service offered by cross-cultural Tauiwi facilitators based in Ōtepoti (Dunedin).
