    The Hawke's Bay Museum & Art Gallery is now closed order to undertake a significant redevelopment project.

    Home to Hawke's Bay's great treasures: Hawke's Bay Museum & Art Gallery is a place of stories, heritage, art and artefacts - a place where visitors can explore New Zealand's vibrant art and cultural history.

    The redevelopment project will repackage the exterior to match the wealth within. Our doors will reopen in 2013.

    The HBMAG Education Service will continue throughout the redevelopment project, operating from The Faraday Centre and other sites throughout the region. Please see the Education page on our website for further information www.hbmag.co.nz

    The Hawke's Bay Museum & Art Gallery will continue to hold events during the redevelopment. Please see the Events page on our website for further information www.hbmag.co.nz
