Bread Makers of Porirua, Unite!
Bread Makers of Porirua, Unite! was part of TEZA Porirua 2015
"The Transitional Economic Zone of Aotearoa (or TEZA for short) is a major event in Porirua in 2015. Artists will work with groups from the community on projects that explore new ways for a diversity of people to work together. Work will develop across the city, and come together with gatherings and displays in November."
The project started with the making of a sourdough starter , The Porirua Mother Starter, which was distributed to people across the region with instructions how to look after it and to make a sourdough loaf. Alongside this there were a number of workshops organised to help people make bread and share bread making experience. During the 9 days of TEZA in November 2015, alongside the many other activities and events the Bread Makers ran workshops, participated in markets and festivals, distributed 200 bread kits and supported a number of other artists projects.
The project is ongoing and will change and develop overtime but central to all activity will be bread.
