With a boom in popularity, the possibilities are endless for expressions of te reo in the arts, so we asked, what's on the horizon?

PANNZ HUI - Episode 9
Livestreamed on Monday 17 August at 11am
The Covid-19 crisis has taken a huge toll on our lives, our livelihoods and our wellbeing. It has forced us to slow down, breathe, and consider the current state of the world, and the environments in which we work and live. Out of the quiet rose a number of voices calling for change, for an end to the status quo, and a caution against a return to 'business as usual'. The ninth online hui asked, is a desire for change enough to affect real change?
Alongside facilitator Dolina Wehipeihana (Ngāti Tukorehe, Ngāti Raukawa) were
- Sarah Meads, Founder of Track Zero
- Dione Joseph, Founder of Black Creatives Aotearoa and Co-Founder of JK Productions: He Kōrero Ngā Tahi
- Pelenakeke Brown, interdisciplinary artist and interim Artistic Director of Touch Compass
