Come along to the public opening of Kā Huru Manu and hear Ngāi Tahu Archive Manager Takerei Norton talk about the Kā Huru Manu cultural mapping project and exhibition, which provides an insight into the Ngāi Tahu history of Hakatere Ashburton by exploring the traditional Māori place names of the region.

An exhibition about Kā Huru Manu was initially held at Tūranga in Christchurch in 2019, and has been re-developed with a particular focus on the local stories of Hakatere Ashburton District. Takerei Norton has been working with the local Ngāi Tahu Papatipu Rūnaka and with our Senior Curator Maryann Cowan to develop this exhibition.
