Every week we head to a creative correspondent out around the motu to gauge the cultural pulse of Aotearoa’s regions.
This week: is there more to Te Tai Poutini than wild foods, pounamu and driftwood? Fred Struve cofounded Art Soup, a youth arts initiative in Greymouth aged 12. Two years on, the Grey District’s youth programme is held up as an example nationally.
Struve catches Culture 101’s Mark Amery up on what’s up on the coast.
