The perfect little museum in the heart of napier, tons of free exhibits with lots of great historical information. Basement floor was closed but only due to renovations which is fair, hope the revamp looks good!

Nice museum and art. Enjoyed the shaking tables you could play with. The video before the room shook like a earthquake was entertaining.

Small but very nice museum. Cool exhibitional hall of Hawkes's bay's story. Can see the view of art deco building from second floor.

MTG Hawke's Bay is a great place to learn about the art and culture of the Hawke's Bay region and beyond. The museum houses a diverse collection of art, including Māori treasures, contemporary works, and historical artifacts from Napier's Earthquake. The Māori collection is particularly impressive, featuring intricate carvings, textiles, and weapons. The museum also has a dedicated Māori gallery, which provides visitors with a deeper understanding of Māori culture and history. Overall, MTG Hawke's Bay is a well-curated and informative museum, however the ladies working there were surprisingly very unkind, which sadly downgraded the experience.

Walked into this lovely museum to be met by the nicest lady, so welcoming and knowledgeable.The museum houses a fine collection of attifacts, and an awesome film interview with survivors of the earthquake that wiped out Napier. Easy to navigate, free entry. Photo friendly too.

What a beautifully curated exhibition telling the story of the town of Napier through its people. I went back twice! It’s free however you can make a donation. The staff were so kind and helpful and happy to share the best way to tour the museum. There is a wonderful gift shop there that is well-priced where you can take home a tasteful memory of your visit.

We visited the exhibition on the history of the 1931 Earthquake in Hawkes Bay. Exhibits was well documented and displayed, and educational. The museum staff are also very friendly and polite. Overall, a lovely visit!

MTG Hawke's Bay in Napier was excellent. It showcases the history of Napier, including records from the day of the earthquake, as well as its history and art. A truly informative and engaging experience.
