Conceived in 2015 and spearheaded by leading Māori artists of the Tauranga Moana region, Te Tuhi Mareikura Charitable Trust (TMT) Tauranga is passionately dedicated to bringing audiences and artists together to experience, explore and develop the unique artistic art legacy of the Tauranga Moana region.

Te Tuhi Mareikura Charitable Trust connects artists together with the community to create public art works, share cultural arts as well as forge art relationships with unique international indigenous communities through the work of Ngā Uri o Muturangi.

Our goal is to advance education in Māori arts by encouraging and promoting learning opportunities for Aotearoa’s visual artists to build on their knowledge and develop their skills through wānanga and workshops.

​Ko tāku toi tāku ohooho!
My origin is my awakening!
