MOTAT is excited to be collaborating with the Auckland War Memorial Museum and the New Zealand Maritime Museum to bring you a weekend of activities, food and entertainment for all to enjoy.

The MOTAT team will teach you to make your own pūrerehua, and Auckland Museum are bringing their pop up museum to explore the experience of Tupaia, a Tahitian navigator priest or ta‘unga, who travelled with James Cook on the Endeavour in search of the great southern continent.
They look forward to welcoming you!
