UTC+12:00Location
University of Auckland Fale Pasifika (20-26 Wynyard Street City Campus) | Auckland, AU
Join us for a full-day wānanga exploring what it means to be Pasifika in Aotearoa’s choral arts spaces. Grounded in talanoa and lived experiences of Pasifika people, this gathering invites singers, composers, conductors, creatives, and supporters (both Pasifika and non-Pasifika) to reflect on identity, storytelling, and the values that shape our musical lives. Featuring a panel discussion, afternoon workshop, and creative exchange, this is a space to listen, learn, and delve deeper into questions around NZ identity.
On our panel, we welcome: Essendon Tuitupou; Asetoa Sam Pilisi, John Lafaele, Te Rina Ruka-Triponel, Fepuleai Helen Tupai, and Enyah Talamaivao.
