We also are honoured to have as a keynote evening event, a presentation by Maori artist George Nuku and conservator Charles Stable on their work together renewing a Maori Waka from the collections of National Museums Scotland.<br \/>\nAnd don&#8217;t forget you also have a chance to attend the &#8220;<strong>Caring for Totem Poles Workshop<\/strong>&#8221; July 23rd-25th, 2014, which immediately follows the conference and is also hosted by the Hibulb Cultural Center.
