The second stage of the Arts and Culture Project will address a number of long recognised problems with the Boon Street facility, including lack of space for current and future collection storage, inadequate environmental conditions for the long term preservation of collections and archives, and unsatisfactory space for effective public access to collections and other Museum resources. It has also endorsed the preparation of funding applications for the project.
A Resource Consent application PDF, 4. More detail about the Museum and Research Centre Redevelopment project is available in the document below. The Museum Redevelopment will transform the existing Whakat ne Museum and Research Centre building in Boon Street into a purpose built research, storage and archives facility, which will address longstanding issues of storage, climate control, access and building integrity. Today, the Council’s dedicated Museum and Arts team provides a public research service and access to the collection at the Whakat ne Museum and Research Centre. The Whakat ne District Council is seeking funding support from the Ministry of Culture and Heritage for a major redevelopment of the Museum building.
We are now inviting the community to help us create a lasting legacy for tomorrow’s enquiring minds. That same year, the Society formed a committee with the aim of building a public museum. Today, the Museum provides a lively schedule of exhibitions at Te K putu and research services at the Whakat ne Museum and Research Centre. The vision of the museum is to learn from the past, engage with the present and inspire the future by preserving, protecting and promoting the social, cultural, natural and artistic heritage of the Whakat ne District and rohe o Mataatua in ways that increase knowledge, enrich the spirit, engage the mind and stimulate the senses
