The Speaker is Peter Laurenson, who will take us on a journey through the wondrous and varied landscapes of Aotearoa New Zealand’s wilderness, through photographs that catch the light, and experiences and reflections that explore our role within Earth’s connected ecosystem.

Concerned about the challenges our warming planet brings, Peter presents images of Aotearoa New Zealand that convey the benefits of wilderness; reminders of what we must protect and nourish, if humanity is to thrive.

He will share some of the beautiful images featured in his new book and talk about some of the issues placing all of this at risk.

During the past 30 years he has climbed and photographed extensively throughout Aotearoa New Zealand.

Peter will bring copies of his book AOTEAROA LIGHT.

The Charity that Peter has chosen for Entry Donations is Forest & Bird.

Supper will be served after the talk.
