Suzanne Tamaki

Suzanne Tamaki, AKA Native Sista, is the acting City Events manager for Wellington City Council and as luck would have it for the Council, a brilliant artist in her own right. She founded Pacific Sisters, a collective of artists of the Wellington Pacific community, and comes on the show to talk about the challenge of supporting Wellington to embrace Māori and Pacific culture through public arts and events. Fun Fact: Suzanne is the niece of Tuhoe living legend Tame Iti.
