New Waitangi Museum

From Standing Room Only, 12:40 pm on 7 February 2016

The brand new Waitangi Museum is a major part of the $14 million redevelopment of the Treaty Grounds and has gathered together taonga from around the country and across the world. Kate Martin manages the curatorial and educational programmes for the Waitangi National Trust. Justin Gregory spoke to Kate the day before the opening and asked her about the pressure of being ready for Waitangi Day.
