Hou Rongo offers an immersive look at the culture of New Zealand's indigenous Moriori people, blending tradition with innovative technology to evoke the feeling of being on Rēkohu/Rangihaute (the Chatham Islands) amid the realms of the etchu (deities).

The exhibition was developed through a partnership of the Hokotehi Moriori Trust and a multidisciplinary team of researchers at the University of Otago, with support from an MBIE Smart Ideas Grant.

There will be additional free events for adults and children throughout the entire six-week run, but bookings are essential.
