A festival centering around the Professor Te Rangiãniwaniwa culture of the Maori people of New Zealand was held at the East-West Center in January. Sponsored by CU's Cultural Manifestations series, the one-week festival featured concert-parties in Kennedy Theatre, lectures on Maori protocol and poetry, as well as crafts demonstrations. The 25-member group, Te Tira Haere o Te Whare Wānanga o Waikato, is a group of students and alumni from the University of Waikato, all dedicated to the perpetuation and growth of Maori language and traditional culture. Maori elders included Professor Te Rangiāniwaniwa Rangihau, Ms. Ngāhuia Rauhihi, and Ms. Catherine Botica; tour leader and organizer was Prof. Timoti (Sam) Kāretu.
