Big Worlds in Short

Join 2026 Ockham New Zealand General Nonfiction Book Award winner Tina Makeriti and 2023 Adam Prize winner Joseph Trinidad as they unveil the lives of their ancestors in order to understand themselves. From the macro to the micro, this session explores how short creative non-fiction can shine the light on who we are and our place in the world; how understanding our own family can lead to self-understanding. Chaired by Sylvan Thomson. Access Tickets – If you require an access ticket or companion ticket, please contact the Box Office or phone 03 548 3840 to book.
