Pataka / December 2023
Pātaka Art + Museum was formed when the Porirua Museum and the Page 90 Art Gallery needed more space and Porirua City suggested they amalgamate onto the current site. Our building is named Te Marae O Te Umu Kai O Hau. The new museum and gallery was officially opened in September 1998 and later that year named, Pātaka Museum of Arts and Culture, now shortened to Pātaka Art + Museum. Pātaka in te reo means a storage place for precious things.
