Welcome to our award-winning museum, home of the region's taonga and other treasures.
The Century Theatre, built in 1977 as a concert chamber to commemorate Napier’s first century as a city, is the setting for the museum's performing arts, film and talks programme. The Theatre bar opens one hour before every show and sells a range of confectionery, alcohol and non-alcoholic beverages.
Mauri is the story of Rewi, a man haunted by a past which threatens to engulf his future.
Written and directed by award-winning filmmaker Merata Mita, Mauri explores cultural tensions, identity and changing ways of life in a dwindling East Coast town.
