About

Te Manawa is at the heart of a city that thrives on discovery. It’s more than a museum or a gallery - it's a space where people and ideas come together.

Story

Welcome to Te Manawa!

Te Manawa is a regional cultural centre where art, heritage and science themes dominate. Our exhibitions explore the past, seek to inform today and pose questions about tomorrow. We host international touring shows and home grown exhibits.

Opening hours:
We are open everyday from 10am - 5pm.

Closed on Christmas Day, Boxing Day, New Year's Day and Good Friday.

Mission

Te Manawa strives to be:

The cultural and social heart of the City and Region.

A showcase and store-house of the Region's taonga and collections.

The interface of Manawatu and the rest of the world - where invention and innovation are hallmarks for everything we do; where our strengths (and point of difference) are our people; where the breadth and depth of our knowledge base, productivity and global impacts are presented.

A fun, rewarding place to visit.

A "must see" attraction for visitors.

A positive contributor to the economic development of the Region.

We achieve our mission by "exploring the heart of our lives" in a manner that is "heart stopping" for our visitors.

Pretty good for free admission, although they would appreciate your support with donations. The Rugby Museum is in the same building upstairs, but is $15 for entry. They have some interesting exhibitions and good for all ages, but under 14 should be supervised

What an incredible free attraction in our great wee city - awesome for those with toddlers and young kids to get busy and have endless fun on a rainy day. This and a few other council initiatives the amazing parks for one have me seriously considering making the move back to good ol palmy!

Te Manawa Museum is a really cool place to check out in Palmerston North. There’s a mix of history, art, and interactive exhibits, so it doesn’t feel boring or old-school. It’s great for kids, teens, and adults, and you can actually learn stuff while still having fun. The layout is easy to walk through and the exhibitions change, so there’s usually something new to see. Definitely worth a visit, especially since it’s a local gem.

This place is absolutely fantastic! One of my favorite features is the playground, which is filled with colorful equipment and fun structures. However, it's a bit disappointing that it's designed specifically for younger children—if I could, I would be playing in the dark room and building a brick wall right now! I understand the need for age restrictions to keep the little ones safe and happy, but it still feels a bit limiting. Despite that, the overall atmosphere of the area is vibrant and welcoming, making it a wonderful spot to visit and enjoy the surroundings.

Excellent free admission museum with natural history, educational and outdoor displays worth an explore. Upstairs has the Rugby Museum paid admission, and  special exhibitions. Additionally, there is an art gallery with special exhibitions that change seasonally.
