New Zealand school teaches Maori carving
The New Zealand Maori Arts & Crafts Institute at Te Puia, an educational facility and tourist attraction in Roturoa, New Zealand, has been teaching the ancient art of Maori carving since 1967.
Twelve full time students study for three years at the school, under the guidance of past graduates, including master carver Clive Fugil, who attended the school's opening session. Visitors to Te Puia can tour the school and talk to the carvers.
The students' work is also often available for sale.
