A very warm thank you to Dr Vanessa Byrnes for once again offering space for our Hui-ā-Tau in the School of Creative Industries at UNITEC, Tāmaki Makaurau.

The programme includes:

  1. Developing shared approaches to challenges and opportunities facing creative arts education in the tertiary education sector.
  2.  Exploring options for the development of CreaTer as a national peak body.
  3. Informal opportunities for attendees to share information, experiences and questions for group input.
