Thelonious Tree

Discover how wonderful our connection to trees can be in this enchanting interactive show, story and scavenger hunt accompanied by live piano music.

Written by home-grown poet Asha Lovegrove and presented by storyteller and ecologist Rosi Merz and musician Joe Dobson, Thelonious Tree is an evocative and interactive show for tamariki ages 6-9.

The Baby Grand awaits in the shade of our Native Arboretum. How did it get here? How will it speak with these trees?

This free event has limited capacity. Registration is not required. Please arrive a few minutes early to get settled; the show will begin promptly.
