Who We Are / Koinei Matou

We have been a regional museum since 1969, with a treasured responsibility to collect, care for and keep alive the precious histories and stories of our region Te Hiku o Te Ika – The Far North.

The museum operates under the guidance of the Far North Regional Museum Trust, with support from the Far North District Council as a trusted partner.

Operationally, the museum is staffed by a full time Curator and part time Museum Assistant with help from an enthusiastic team of volunteers.
Current 2022 Far North Regional Museum Trustees are:

• Bronwyn Bauer-Hunt (Chair)
• Sarah Wale (Secretary)
• Ian Bamber (Treasurer)
• Sheryl Bainbridge (Te Hiku Community Board representative)
• Haami Piripi (Te Runanga o Te Rarawa representative)
• David Russell
