A richness of all forms of Ngā Toi Māori greets visitors to Toi Matarau at the Māoriland Hub in Ōtaki Village. Artworks from emerging, established, and high-profiled artists of Te Āti Awa, Ngāti Raukawa, Ngāti Toarangatira showcase their work, as well as artists from Te Wānanga o Raukawa and those with a connection to Ōtaki and Kāpiti. Rangatahi are encouraged to exhibit alongside some of the country’s most venerated Māori artists.  

 Toi Matarau is a Toi Iho™ licenced Māori art gallery of traditional and contemporary Māori art, describing themselves as “a whare tapere – home for the Indigenous, the arts, a house of inspiration and storytelling where economic, social and cultural wellbeing is supported.”
