Council releases discussion document on cultural heritage sector
Auckland Council today released a discussion document which looks at its $61 million investment in five major arts and
culture heritage institutions across the city.
An independent review of the cultural heritage sector carried out by Stafford Strategy examines funding and governance
arrangements for the five major cultural heritage institutions that are wholly, or in large part, funded by the council
- Auckland War Memorial Museum Tāmaki Paenga Hira, Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki, Museum of Transport and Technology
(MOTAT), New Zealand Maritime Museum and the Stardome Observatory and Planetarium.
“The cultural sector holds some of our city’s and country’s most prized possessions. We invest a large amount of public
money in them and want the sector to work together to ensure future generations enjoy the full benefits of our museums
and galleries,” - Mayor Phil Goff.
