Waikato Museum, Te Whare taonga o Waikato is the artistic and cultural heart of our city. We value and celebrate our rich and diverse cultural heritage, particularly with respect to our relationship with iwi, and also our region's artistic vibrancy and flair for scientific innovation.
We achieve this through the collection and care of the region's heritage and taonga, sharing stories via informative, inspiring and engaging experiences, stimulating awareness, understanding and enjoyment in the community and communicating and celebrating our special partnership with Tainui.
