The first OtisFest was held in 2024, now 2 years later Otis Fest is returning to raise funds for Rei Kōtuku Palliative care. We would love to see you all come out and celebrate Otis Hill’s life and raise money for an amazing organisation.

We invite you to come out and celebrate his life regardless of if you knew him personally or not. The event celebrates Otis, brings the local music community together, and raises money for a wonderful charity, Rei Kotuku, who specialize in children’s palliative care.

In our world, disruption is not an exception; it is becoming the norm. For libraries and archives, one of the challenges is not to stand apart from disruption, but to become places of convergence — of memory, access and trust, ultimately leading to transformation of communities, service and access.

Join this free event to hear from six international leaders about how the best practice in the library and archive sector is constantly shapeshifting. They will also look at how transformative programming and community engagement is changing the face of the contemporary library/archive sectors, and the communities they serve.
