A brand-new series of murals created by local rangatahi (young adults) were unveiled on Friday at the entrance of Trafalgar Park. The artwork is centered around stories of the eight iwi of Te Tauihu (the Top of the South Island) and the theme of tūmanako, or hope. The project was led by the artist Graham “Mr G” Hoete and commissioned by Te Puni Kōkiri (Ministry of Māori development), with support from Council, Ngā Iwi o Te Tauihu, Whakatū Marae, Nelson Community Venues and Tasman Rugby Union.
