We've got events for everyone this July and August. Whether you're feeling sporty or scientific, crafty, creative, poetic, or prosaic, Dunedin Public Libraries have plenty to keep you busy this Winter!

Matariki Light-Up Star Craft

Is it Matariki? Is it art? Is it science? The answer to all of those questions is yes! Come along to one of our Light-up Matariki Card workshops. You will find out some fun facts about the whetū/stars of Matariki and about simple electrical circuits, then put it all together with a bit of artistic flair to make a card with a Matariki star that lights up!
