Taoga Niue was host to a special art exhibition two weeks ago featuring works created by father and daughter duo Matagi Jessop-Vilitama and Christyl Matagi-Vilitama from the village of Mutalau.

The exhibition called “ATUA ATUA” commemorated 178 years since the arrival of Christianity to Niue. It was launched in Uluvehi, Mutalau in October as a nod to the village where Christianity first settled in Niue before being displayed at Taoga.
