Great staff, love the artifacts and of course the knowledge and facts that you learn are priceless. The Napier Earthquake exhibition on the Basement floor is made more personal when you hear, see and read the personal accounts of Napier/Hawkes Bay Residents and how as a United Community throughout the Regions - overcame tragedy to rise and triumph adversity. The Kahungungu Maori Exhibition highlights past/future Maori Talent and Kaumatua/Artefacts within our turangawaewae , and even though I'm Whanau affiliated with my ancestors on the touch screen - I was still educated in history about them. Nice touch with the personal message korowai too! Diwali Exhibition is Amazing!! Must see. I Highly recommend the MTG for a Family outing, the Drop Zone is kiddie friendly full of activities for interaction between Adults & Children, Group tours and us Locals too.
