Please note this special edition of seniors takes place Puke Ariki Museum.
Meet for coffee at Arborio Café at 9:30am, or join us in the Puke Ariki Museum foyer. 


Join Puke Ariki Pictorial Curator Natasha McKinney for a lively guided walk through the Kiingi Tuheitia Portraiture Award exhibition. Spend time with a striking selection of portraits from across Aotearoa and hear the stories, ideas and connections that bring these works to life. 

Along the way, discover portraits of treasured tūpuna expressed through painting, photography, weaving, sculpture and moving image. The Puke Ariki presentation also includes new works by Taranaki artists and photographic portraits from the museum’s collections, creating a rich local connection to the exhibition.

Come early for coffee at Arborio Café, then enjoy a relaxed and engaging morning of art, conversation and shared discovery.
