Parihaka Commemorations Ōtepoti Dunedin 2020

Andrew Metcalfe —

Remembering Parihaka - Maungārongo Ki Te Whenua: You and your whanau are invited to attend a variety of events from 5-15 November

You and your whānau are invited to attend…

  • Tātarakihi – The Children of Parihaka — Thursday 5th November
  • Peace Art Exhibition - Sunday 8th & Sunday 15th November

More information is attached below. 

The message of Paihaka is a message of peace. The two communities, Dunedin/Otago and Parihaka/Taranaki will always have a sad but special connection. As we reflect and learn from history, perhaps we can be inspired to be people of peace. We could celebrate peaceful action, but also affirm peace amongst families and amongst communities.

A koha will be taken which will go towards Dunedin Night Shelter
