Connect with Toi Poneke and The Hub
P | 04 385 1929
The Hub is all about sharing of arts information. There will be casual meeting space, more formal [but still open] discussion space, computers which will provide access to online information sharing spaces, discussion boards and other resources to support information sharing.
The programme will be a mix of regular and spontaneous activity. This activity can be proposed and run by anyone. Activity which promotes the sharing of knowledge, skills and resources through discussion and collaboration will be prioritised.
The backbone of the Toi Poneke Hub, the tahuhu or the central concern of the space is ‘Cultural Wellbeing’. Promoting cultural wellbeing in the city is one of our key responsibilities as the City Council. The ideas of collaboration, building community, self and collective expression, participation, celebrating diversity, and listening with all our being, are key ideas inherent in cultural wellbeing. These ideas are also reflected in Rongo – and through the naming of the Bones process [see the November update] we have identified Rongo as the backbone of the Toi Poneke Hub.
