Children’s Guide to Lisa Walker

How does a child view the jewellery of Lisa Walker?

Thirteen-year-old Isaac du Toit with Megan du Toit unpack Lisa’s jewellery for a  young audience.

Isaac first came to Te Papa’s attention when he, with other children from Pukerua Bay School, wrote the Children’s Guide to Splendour in 2016.

Isaac has continued his love of museums and collections through this new online publication.
