What is Tiny Fest?

I te tau 2019 i ara ake a Ōtautahi Tiny Performance Festival hei hui taurima hou, hei tuāpapa, hei whare mō ngā mātanga Toi me ōna iwi mātakitaki o te ‘Apōpō’ ki Ōtautahi nei.

Ko tā ‘Tiny’ he whakatairanga ake i te mana kōrero, te mana ao tūroa me te mana tangata mā te whakakotahitanga o ngā iwi ki te whakanui i te tuakiri tangata me te kōtui anō i te taura tangata.

Ōtautahi Tiny Performance Festival emerged in 2019 to be a new kind of festival, a platform and a community hub for the next wave of performance makers and audiences in Ōtautahi.

Tiny creates space for mana kōrero, mana ao tūroa, and mana tangata, by bringing people together to celebrate difference and the ways we are all interconnected.
