Creative New Zealand has been engaging with Māori across the length and breadth of Aotearoa as a first step in developing a by Māori for Aotearoa Māori arts strategy.
Paula Cuff, Senior Manager Māori Strategy & Partnerships, says Creative New Zealand is focused on enhancing its support for Māori arts and working in collaboration with government and others to support, nurture and grow Māori arts.
“In developing a Ngā Toi Māori strategy that can best support our artists, it’s essential that we listen to the aspirations Māori have for Ngā Toi Māori, as well as the challenges faced by artists and arts organisations.”
Creative New Zealand has held more than 20 regional hui throughout New Zealand. A final hui will be held on Wednesday 9 May, 6pm-8:30pm at the Millenium Hotel, 71 Mayoral Drive, Auckland.
