Outside of Pātaka Museum doors

Pātaka Art + Museum - Behind the scenes tour

Have you ever wondered what goes on behind those 'staff only' doors? Join our guides for a peek behind the heritage curtain.

Join guides from Porirua's City Centre Library and Pātaka Art + Museum to take a 'behind the scenes' tour of the heritage collections. They will reveal how the objects in the collections are being looked after and what is available to tell the stories of Porirua's history.

Health & Safety

As a public facility, Pātaka Art + Museum abides by the requirements needed to provide visitors with a safe environment. Some of the areas on the tour have limited space to move around in but visitors will be guided by staff to ensure they are kept safe.
