Kaiako Mātauranga Māori

Museums and art galleries are special places at the cultural heart of our communities. The work we do enriches us all by keeping our heritage alive, connecting one another, and inspiring the coming generations of creators, storytellers, and problem-solvers. We are the caretakers of the treasures and stories of our people… stories told, in all voices – in every sound, in every beat and in every colour. That’s why we museum.
