Trees, Trees and More Trees – Art Activation

Join us at the Hundertwasser Art Centre with Wairau Māori Art Gallery for a fun, creative morning celebrating Arbor Day and World Environment Day. Get hands-on and create your own Arbor Day poster, inspired by the importance of trees and the role they play in supporting our environment. Arbor Day has a long history in Aotearoa. First observed in the late 1800s, it was a day dedicated to planting trees across the country. Since 1977, it has been celebrated on 5 June, with a strong focus on planting and protecting New Zealand native trees.
