exhibition Details
Journey back to the 19th century when European immigrants began settling in Aotearoa New Zealand. Enticed by tales of the country's clement weather and resource-rich environment, people travelled across the globe in search of a peaceful and prosperous way of life.
Experience this time of massive change through works by both professional and amateur artists.
