Toi on Tour – Creative Taranaki hui series
Are you a creator, maker, performer, advocate or appreciator?
We’ll be travelling around the Mounga to connect, listen and share
Come and contribute to the conversation about our regional arts sector
The Creative Taranaki hui series will deliver events in Pātea, Hāwera, Stratford, Ōpunake, Urenui and New Plymouth and is a chance to connect with Arts Coordinator Megan Symons and the board’s trustees.
The Creative Taranaki Trust will be presenting its strategic plan, sharing some of the exciting initiatives proposed, and seeking input and assistance from our creative community regarding its work program. The gatherings will be informative, fun and hands-on, with ample opportunity for attendees to share their thoughts and feedback, and to socialise over light refreshments.
Creative Taranaki seeks to strengthen our region’s entire ecosystem across all disciplines, ensuring Taranaki is the best place in Aotearoa to thrive as a creative.
We have delivered funding support opportunities through Workshops and Clinics, engaging the expertise of Valerie Barraclough. They’ve been well attended by a diverse range of creatives, this one hosted by the Eltham Village Gallery.
The innaugural Taranaki Art Show Opening was a wonderful celebration, the event showcasing talented local visual artists. Thanks to Derek Hughes for capturing the excitement and positivity of the gathered crowd and the motivated team from The Collaboration who made it happen!
The hui series starts in Pātea on Tuesday 10th September and runs through consecutive Tuesdays until the final hui in New Plymouth on the 24th, with both daytime and evening sessions available. They are free to attend and all interested parties are welcome, with RSVPs appreciated for planning and catering purposes: megan@creativetaranaki.org
