ABOUT ŌTARI RARANGA
Ōtari Raranga Weavers was established during Covid lockdown in 2021. It began as a beginner series of classes aiming to revitalise traditional raranga practices and build community in the surrounding suburbs of Ōtari-Wilton’s Bush. Tickets are based on a koha style of payment.
We have stayed committed to nurturing the growth and development of our growing weaving community. Some tauira (students) have been attending since 2021 and have dedicated time to kaiwhina (support) beginners during class, preserving and caring for our Pā Harakeke, contributing to Ōtari Open Day festivities and the many other events we are involved in.
Thanks to the Wellington Communities Trust, we are able to offer a year long, free-to-attend programme to our tuakana rōpū (advanced weaving group) to significantly enhance their mātauranga in recognition of their contribution and dedication in the Ōtari Raranga Weavers setting.
*Funds raised will contribute towards our much anticipated 3 day Wānanga in Ōtaki next year where tauira will start their FIRST KĀKAHU!
