As we look back on the most disrupted year in Auckland War Memorial Museum’s long history, we also look back on another year of success.
We were well on the way to achieving ambitious goals when the nation went back into lockdown in August 2021. Within 24 hours, Tāmaki Paenga Hira had pivoted to be an online museum, with Auckland Museum at Home our virtual front door once again. As we continued to share our collections with our virtual manuhiri, our visitor hosts and volunteers turned their collective energy to enriching Online Cenotaph, contributing more than 11,000 new records. We are now recognised as the leading online museum in Australasia.
