PRESERVING HISTORY
Te Puni Kökiri and National Services Te Paerangi hosted
a two-day digital photography and paper conservation workshop in
Hawera for south Taranaki Mäori. Participants were taught how to
make the best use of their own digital cameras and to record images
of tupuna and whänau. The next day, Vicki-Anne Heikel showed
how to care for precious paper documents like Bibles, whakapapa,
manuscripts, journals and diaries. A highlight of the workshop for
some of the participants was making a storage box from acid-free
cardboard for their own documents.
