"Toro mai tō ringa, Kia harirūtia" "Reach out your hand and clasp mine" The beginning of a favourite waiata from the North, written by Sir Kingi Ihaka, this epitomises the kaupapa of the Toro Mai Trust. Toro Mai Trust was established in 2019 to assist first year art students cover costs of tertiary education and materials. The intention is to raise funds that can be awarded to a local student on an annual basis to meet some of the many financial commitments. Recipients will be selected from Whangarei secondary schools. Toro Mai Trust is proud to be associated with Mind, Body and Salt, Whangarei who provide facilities within their premises for emerging youth artists to exhibit their creations. A rotation system will operate to ensure that all students get maximum exposure for their work
