Artists Miriama Grace-Smith, Xoe Hall and Gina Kiel will be working onThe Taniwha Stage.
An expanded public art programme will be used to tell “diverse stories” during the 2021 Cubadupa street festival on March 27-28.
Public art curator Mark Amery has brought together a programme that focuses on innovative ways to dig deeper into local stories of diverse ethnic and migrant communities.
These would range from a giant stage set for karaoke and poetry to live embroidery, involving New Zealanders of Māori, Asian, Columbian, and Congolese descent.
The programme also includes Curators of Cuba – a free roving live discussion series with the mavericks behind galleries in the Cuba St area and their artists, highlighting a line-up of exhibitions and performances during the weekend.
