Free and low cost weekday craft workshops for Community Services Card holders and community groups, thanks to support from Creative New Zealand. Book online work shops for purchase.

An introductory film about Rekindle is included with every purchase, along with an introduction to the material of tī kōuka (cabbage tree) leaves for our weaving and string making workshops.

A series of practical workshops for rongoa Maori - Traditional Maori Medicine. Workshops are taught in the bush in a supportive and encouraging environment for both Maori and non-Maori participants. All workshops are run over a weekend and are held in the ngahere (bush).
