- In this report to the New Zealand Māori Council, Rogers, as the Council’s representative on the Rotorua Arts and Crafts Institute Board of Control, writes of the progress of the Institute’s building programme, the development of permanent Māori Cultural Groups in the area and the rostering of the guides. Rogers notes the huge influx of visitors to the Institute during its first year in existence and questions whether in the future the N.Z. Māori Council will call for the Institute to become a national institution that ‘encompass[es] all forms of Māori Art and Culture’.
