Nau mai ki tō tātou kaupapa, ki Te Mātātuhi ki Te Papa! He kauwaka tēnei ki te āta tūhura i te whakapapa o te moko.
***
Join us at Te Mātātuhi ki Te Papa as we acknowledge our tūpuna, celebrate moko, and continue the journey of reconnection, healing, and kotahitanga.
Nō te tau kua hori, kua kaha tā Te Uhi a Mataora rangahau i te kūaha ki te ao tawhito o te moko mā ngā Toi Moko e manaakihia nei e Te Papa i te Wāhi Tapu o tō tātou whare. He mea tautoko ēnei wānanga e Toi Māori Aotearoa, ā, nā te kaupapa me te kāhui rangatira o Karanga Aotearoa Repatriation Programme ō tātou tīpuna me ngā Toi Moko i whakahoki mai i tāwāhi ki te kāinga, ki Aotearoa.
Mutu ana ngā wānanga, kua hiahia a Te Uhi a Mataora ki te whakatinana i ngā akoranga nō ngā Toi Moko ki te kiri o te tangata. Nā reira, koia tēnei ko te reo pōhiri a Te Uhi a Mataora, a Toi Māori Aotearoa, otirā a Te Papa Tongarewa, kia tatū mai ki tō tātou mokopapa ki Rongomaraeroa Marae!
Tomo mai rā ki tā tātou kaupapa – ki Te Mātātuhi ki Te Papa! Ki konei tāia tahitia ai e Te Uhi a Mataora ngā rūau o te moko, ngā tauira whakatiketike o te pō ki runga ki te kiri o te tangata!
Tā Derek Lardelli, Mark Kopua, Riki Manuel, Joni Brooking, Henare Brooking, Raniera McGrath, Ngaire Tuhua, me Maia Gibbs.
Ka horaina ngā taonga nui o te ahurea o te moko ki runga ki te takapau o te tira kahurangi hei whakatairanga, hei whakakaurera, hei tākirikiri i te urutapu motuhenga o te moko. Ka mutu, ka tū ko ngā wānanga hei ngā ahiahi, kia whai kauwaka ai te iwi ki te āta matapaki i te pūtake o ngā kōrero o te wānanga, kia tīwhana mai ai te kōrero i te korowaha o te pō ki te tapawaha o te ao mārama - "Whāia ngā mahi o Rarohenga."
Hei āpitihanga, kua whakaritea tētahi wāhi motuhake mā ngā tamariki mokopuna ki te āta whera ki te ao o te moko mā ngā ngohe whakakoakoa!
He wāhi motuhake tēnei mā ō tātou tamariki mokopuna ki te whera i te ao o te moko. E wātea ana ki ngā reanga katoa! Haramai rā!
The Tamariki Zone ensures that our kids have a dedicated space to flourish and explore te ao o te moko, the living world of Māori skin markings. All ages are welcome! Haramai!
