Following a book launch talk for the new Karioi Volcano book in the Stewart Street Church Hall, an exhibition has opened on the Volcano and the new book at Raglan Old School Arts Centre. The exhibition is proudly presented by Raglan Naturally. In the Old School Gallery it will run from 7-12 September.

Geologist Dr Oliver McLeod says that his new book weaves together kōrero of local mātauranga Māori and geological science.

Oliver has traversed the slopes of Karioi over the last few years, meeting its people and listened to their stories. The result is a remarkable book which plots the geology and whakapapa of Karioi. The result is a magnificent book and map, Geology of Karioi Volcano.

You can find out about his work and the book at the exhibition on his research project at the Raglan Old School Arts Centre, 5 Stewart St, Raglan.
