Tok stori Vikitolia Pasifiki and Te Vainui O Pasifika

@ Melbourne Museum

Welcome to Te Vainui O Pasifika | the great waters of the Pacific peoples.

This exhibition was made with the Pacific Island Advisory Group and community members as one of Melbourne Museum's opening exhibitions in 2001.

Tok stori Vikitolia Pasifiki brings today's Pacific voices to the beloved original exhibition.

We invite you to connect with a man kan tru | ancestral objects from across the Wan Solwara | Te Moana nui a Kiwa | Pacific Ocean.

These taonga | precious treasures hold the wairua | spirit and mauri | life force of Pacific ancestors.

In the sounds that envelop the space we share with you the mana | power of Pacific people.

It is through these buderi | cultural possessions images stories and sounds that the essence of living cultures are expressed to honour those who have championed the vasa loaloa | wide oceans.

In partnership with the Victorian Pacific Cultural Leaders Advisory Group we have filled this space with the voices and stories of today's Pacific communities.

You will hear kaang temaan kin | personal stories and sacred histories and see measina | treasures from the perspective of Victorians whose hearts span across the Wan Solwara | Te Moana nui a Kiwa | Pacific Ocean.
