Te Whānau Āio are the guardians of Māori cultural experiences at the Auckland Museum, representing 14 iwi from New Zealand. Our collective duty is to share our ancestors' stories to educate the world beyond common stereotypes.
Our group consists of professionals who are masters in their field. We have traveled globally as experts, judges, dancers, cultural educators, lecturers, professional singers, spiritual tutors, indigenous spokesmen, and language facilitators. We are not simply entertainers.
