Building by the Water - A Wellington Heritage Festival Exhibition

Take a closer look at the history of Porirua’s harbourside, from early Māori settlements to cutting edge contemporary engineering developments.

As part of the 2025 Wellington Heritage Festival, Kai Tahi presents a visual exhibition in celebration of Porirua’s unique harbourside heritage.

Building by the Water brings together archival images courtesy of the Alexander Turnbull Library Collection and recent photographic works by Jason Mann. Seen collectively, this visual record aims to place the Kai Tahi development into the wider history of construction along Te Awarua-o-Porirua Harbour.

The exhibition traces a history of harbourside settlement from Māori pa sites, to whaling stations, early settler communities, harbour reclamation, big box retail and now, in 2025, the next community-focused iteration of harbourside settlement, as exemplified by Kai Tahi and the reuse of existing industrial forms.

Kai Tahi has a simple but powerful mission: to transform the traditional idea of a food-court into a cultural and creative harbourside hub for the Porirua Community.

Get Fixed Live Music - OatHops

OatHops takes you on a journey back to the 90s Britpop era and plays versions of the well to lesser known acts that graced the stage.

Having said that, some real classics are there with heavy influences from the US/Canadian alternative scene in the set, plus a couple of Kiwi inspired choices since arriving here from the land of whisky and haggis almost 10 years ago.

Get Fixed Live Music - Ryan Edwards

Ryan Edwards is a singer, guitarist and performer of the highest quality. Kiwi born and raised, he took his music overseas where he played on stages and in cafes and bars in England, France, Ireland and The United States.

Whether he’s playing his own original songs or giving his own feel to some of the best songs ever written - his warm vocals, his knack for knowing the right song to sing at any moment and his tremendous repertoire makes him a favourite with audiences of all ages.

"I was lucky to grow up in a time when music was something special. The radio stations played the latest music, but they also dipped back into the 60's and 70's, and I just soaked it all up. Many of the songs I sing are unlearned - they're just 'in there' somehow - from just listening".
