Kia ora everyone,
the opening of the exhibition last Monday at the Auckland Central library was awesome. The kaumatua of Ngati Whatua came out in force and supported us a the library and since the opening we've had alot of people whanau from Orakei and supporters of that time sharing their korero. Today we had a 97 year old Orakei resident come in to have a look and remembers the day he got a arrested and had his day in court. He remembers feeling a sense of duty and obligation to support the people because they helped build the Orakei community centre.
Here are some photos from the opening:
