Toitū Te Tiriti. From 10 to19 November 2024, thousands of New Zealanders walked together from Te Heringa Wairua Cape Reinga to parliament.
‘Hikoi Āwhiowhio’ is an anthology of stories told by those from Te Tauihu who joined the Hikoi in 2024 to uphold Te Tiriti o Waitangi, the founding document of Aotearoa New Zealand. These stories are woven together with poetry by Donna McLeod.
The journey starts at Kaiteretere beach with karakia acknowledging the Nelson Tenths and unresolved grief, follows journeys by ferry and plane across Te Moana o raukawa - Cook Strait, and culminates with the march to the Beehive, where both Māori and their allies stood and declared their support for Te Tiriti.
These are the voices of pēpē, tamariki, rangitahi, pakeke, kaumatua, and whānau. Through waiata, taonga pūoro, haka, karakia, whiti and kōrero in Te Reo Māori, English and other languages, their stories are told. This is intergenerational, this is bicultural, this is multicultural, this is Aotearoa.
Friday 2 May | 7pm
Sat 3 May | 2pm + 7pm
Hikoi Āwhiowhio created by Donna McLeod and the Āwhio Collective, presented in partnership with Nelson Arts Festival.
