Kiwi Country: Te Radar and Ruth Spencer
Nov 1 @ 11:30 am - 12:30 pm
$25
Presented by: Tauranga Arts Festival
Raconteur writers Te Radar and Ruth Spencer walk us through their new book—a hilarious exploration of rural life in Aotearoa through its artefacts, gadgets, and ephemera.
Think Red Band gumboots, milk tankers, meat safes, mangles and ride-on mowers; Godfrey Bowen’s pink Long Johns, the Waimate White Horse, wartime tanks made from converted tractors… and much more. Come along for an entertaining and educational journey through icons and idiosyncrasies of our rural history.
