Celebrating the sea creatures of Aotearoa at Whangārei Museum

Special Exhibition 9 March – 12 May 2024,10 am to 4 pm

Brought to you by Kiwi North in collaboration with Seaweek and supported by original artefacts from the historical Museum of Fishes Northland.

Have you ever felt the skin surface of a sunfish? Life and Tides is a contemporary exhibition that focuses on marine life and local history, while igniting new elements of curiosity. This exhibition not only celebrates Seaweek, but recalls the past of Whangārei’s iconic Museum of Fishes, a natural history hub which intrigued and educated locals and visitors across the 1990s.

“No one will protect what they don’t care about, and no one will care about what they have never experienced” - Sir David Attenborough
