Rūaumoko: Restless Land

1 Tennyson St, Napier

This touring exhibition uses mātauranga Māori and a scientific lens, this hands-on, interactive exhibition delves into the realm of Rūaumoko, the atua of volcanoes and earthquakes, and the youngest child of Ranginui and Papatūānuku.

The story is told through the effects of Rūaumoko, his important contributions to living on the whenua, how we can be prepared, and the science involved.

You will be taken on a journey through interactive activities, tectonic plate models, volcanic rock samples, a shake table, and kōrero from Rūaumoko.

Developed and toured by the Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa
