Women of Pōneke: Hidden Stories of Our City

6 November | 5:00–7:30pm | The Exchange (The Atrium), Blair & Allen Streets, Wellington

We’re ending the year with an invitation to rediscover the hidden and magical delights that make Wellington the city we love.

Pōneke is a city of contrasts, wild and urban, creative and political. Its hidden stories are all around us, waiting to be noticed and celebrated. We’ll take inspiration from the Wellington Writers Walk; a trail of words and ideas scattered along the waterfront that invites us to pause, notice and listen.

We are delighted to welcome Dame Fiona Kidman as our special guest. As one of the original founders of the Walk, she will share why this project was so important to her and the inspiration behind it. As an esteemed New Zealand author, Dame Fiona brings a wealth of experience in storytelling, creativity, and reflection that we hope will inspire us to all explore our wonderful city.

Join us for an evening of conversation, discovery and connection with wine and delicious food.

Special thanks to our major sponsors INSIDE Recruitment and HUM Consulting.
