Show your support for Canterbury Museum in just 3 minutes.
We are halfway through a major redevelopment to create a world-class Museum for our city, but we need your help to get to the finish line.
To complete this project and ensure we can reopen in mid-2029, we require an additional capital commitment from the Christchurch City Council. We need that commitment now to complete the project’s construction phase.
Please make a positive submission on the Council’s draft Annual Plan supporting the restoration of four iconic Christchurch buildings: the Museum, the Cathedral, the Arts Centre and the Provincial Chambers. Your support can help ensure your new Museum becomes a reality for our community and future generations.
