Nga Ringa Toi o te Matou a Maui

Student Maori Art Exhibition at Napier's Community Arts Centre, Napier.

Celebrating Maori and Pasifika Toi by school students from Te Matou a Maui (Hawke’s Bay), is the kaupapa of this exhibition. Ringa Toi o te Matou a Maui has displayed over one hundred works by local students since its inception in 2019. The inspiration for the exhibition was seeing the national Ringa Toi exhibition in Wellington. The art was truly impressive and we wanted local whanau to have the opportunity to see the work.

Since 2019 work has been displayed by William Colenso College, Napier Boys’ High, Te Kura Kaupapa Maori o Ngati Kahungunu ki Heretaunga, Flaxmere College, Sacred Heart, Tamatea High, Te Kura Kaupapa Maori o Te Ara Hou, Taikura Rudolf Steiner, Napier Girls’, Te Aute College, Hastings’ Girls, Hukarere Karamu High School.

So, Nau Mai, Haere Mai and be wowed by the wide range of work from schools across the Bay.
