$Bringing Back \u2018Tertulia' [TUKU Whakatu 2025]$

Bringing Back ‘Tertulia’. A Night of Culture, Expression & Connection
Experience the magic of 'Tertulia', a Spanish word that summons back the tradition of gathering to share ideas, stories, and art.
Whether through spoken word, poetry, music, storytelling, or acting, this is a space where creativity and culture come to life.
This event is open to artists, storytellers, musicians, and anyone who appreciates cultural expression. Whether you want to perform, share your work, or simply listen, your presence adds to the experience.
