Overview
E Rere Kōtare is a week-long wananga designed to uplift the self-esteem, confidence, and mana of textile artists in our community.
Healing starts at home. When you uplift the wahine, you strengthen the community. Our small community deserves moments of joy, creativity, and connection. E Rere Kōtare will bring women together to share skills, creativity, and stories while celebrating the beauty, strength, and talents of local wahine.
Through workshops, talks, creativity, and a joyful community celebration, E Rere Kōtare aims to remind women that everyone has value, beauty, and something powerful to share.
