Join Wild for Taranaki, Taranaki’s Biodiversity Trust, as we dive into Seaweek—Aotearoa’s annual celebration of our incredible moana and the life it sustains. Even if we’re gathering just outside the official dates, we’re keeping the spirit of Seaweek alive all the same. We’re bringing our community together for a special screening of three captivating short films, each offering a unique window into the mysteries, beauty, and wonder beneath the waves. Following the films, enjoy a relaxed community kōrero with our special guest Rebecca Pratt, founder of Salty Slate Productions, whose passion for storytelling helps reveal the magic of our underwater world.
