This week the Dowse Art Museum in Lower Hutt hosted Connection: an Arts Communications Hui, gathering together arts marketers, communicators and PR people with artists and media heads to discuss arts media coverage.
Mark Amery was there and caught up with playwright and theatre producer Hone Kouka after a talk he gave to discuss changes in the way Maori feature in the media, the paucity of Maori arts journalists and why collectively the future still looks bright for contemporary Maori arts.
