Building a connected creative future in Taupō
Creative New Zealand - Toi Aotearoa, 26 November 2025 , New Zealand
What does a community look like when arts, culture, and creativity are at its heart and supported by local government?
Taupō District has taken its first steps to find out by developing the Arts, Culture and Ngā Toi Action Plan 2022 with support from Creative New Zealand’s $30,000 Local Government Arts Fund.
At the heart is ngā toi Māori – the living arts of tangata whenua that connect people, place, and whakapapa, forming the spiritual and cultural heartbeat of Ngāti Tūwharetoa and Taupō.
