In January 2026, taonga p\u016boro returned to the whenua of M\u014dt\u012bt\u012b in a powerful w\u0101nanga focused on rongo\u0101 M\u0101ori and sound healing.

Held at Kirikiriroa Marae, this international taonga p\u016boro symposium brought together Indigenous artists and knowledge holders from Aotearoa, Te Moana-nui-a-Kiwa, Alaska, China, and beyond. Across five days of workshops, k\u014drero, crafting, and performance, we explored the living breath of our instruments and the deep relationships they carry.
