Malaga Sā Strings

Malaga Sā means Sacred Journey. Its the principal theme for a Pasifika founded and lead arts and performance group for Porirua. It will expand to include a full symphony orchestra, a dance company, actors, dancers and choirs. For an orchestra there is nothing that is uniquely and exclusively for Pasifika. Other groups have very Euro-Centric focuses where our Pacific identity and ethnicity is often lost or not respected. We have already started as a group of volunteer whanau and children. All Pasifika, all orchestral strings players. We have a hugely exciting roadmap which celebrates our point of difference.

We aim to create opportunities for Pasifika youth by making pathways for them in Arts and Performance. We care for a cater to Pasifika values of faith, service and aiga or whanau and village/community. Our Vision Statement: To Inspire, Empower and Educate through our Pasifika Creative and Performing Arts.
