Update 22/08: Please note that our Kaitiaki Taonga / Collections Care Technician is unwell and isolating at home, so this workshop will be postponed until further notice. Museum staff will offer guided tours of the collections to anyone who turns up tomorrow, and will also take contact details and general object enquiries to be followed up. Tēnā koe i ngākaunui mai / Thanks for your understanding.

From kākahu to candelabras, learn about simple ways to care for treasured family heirlooms at home.

Kaitiaki Taonga / Collections Care Technician Valerie will share her expert knowledge in packing and storing fabrics, photos, papers and other treasured items using everyday materials.
