A special time to also celebrate those who are no longer with us through stories, shared memories and photographs. A gentle reminder to be grateful for those who have contributed to our lives and a staunch reminder of our whakapapa (genealogy), of who we are and of the names we carry. We invite everyone who would like to pay tribute, remember and acknowledge a loved one who has passed since the last Matariki, to share a memorial photo of them in a special tribute to be screened at The Village Community Cinema at our Matariki at the Village Whanau Day event on Saturday 22 June from 9am to 2pm. This tribute will be open for everyone to come and sit and cherish these images. If you would like your loved one to be included in this tribute please email a clear photo with details to cinema@theincubator.co.nz Artwork of Pōhutukawa is by Michelle Estall Art.
