Join Cecelia Kumeroa, curator for He Ao Āpōpō, He Ao Tea: Māori Futures for a quick introduction to the gallery architecture before heading into the Pātaka for a tour of the exhibition. ‘He ao āpōpō, he ao tea’ translates to ‘tomorrow holds a brighter future’ (Dr Rangitakuku Metekingi) and informs the aspirational theme for our 2026 Puanga exhibition.
