Event
There’s no need to wait for after dark to see the stars come out to play. We have a whole constellation of celestial bodies twinkling around the Estate just waiting to be found in our latest school holiday trail!
To begin stargazing, pick up a trail map from the Coffee Studio cafe, then follow the map around the Estate to tally up how many cosmic characters and creations you can find!
From the star cluster Matariki (AKA Pleiades, Subaru, Mao or Krittka), to other astronomical finds like comets, meteors, planets, suns and moons - come and see how many you can spot for your chance to win a special place at an upcoming kids workshop!
Stargazer Art Drop-ins
Join us anytime between 10am and 2pm on Saturday 6th July and Saturday 13th July in Projectspace for our FREE whānau-friendly art drop-ins, where there'll be star weaving and wet-felted planets to create.
