The exhibition includes a collection of portraits and where a photo could not be found, silhouettes that remember 176 Westland men who were at Gallipoli. Photographs of all four of our Makaawhio men who fought at Gallipoli 100-years-ago – Kere Katau te Naihi, Jim Bannister, Tuhuru Bannister and Pahikore te Koeti feature in the exhibition, which was opened with a blessing led by Poutini Ngāi Tahu. On Anzac Day the exhibition was opened to the public.
