Our sponsors in the community

Our sponsors are integral in assisting us to maintain our role in the community as an educational resource and as one of Whangārei’s leading tourist attractions.

We operate with thanks to the following sponsors

With the support provided by the Whangārei District Council, the ASB Community Trust, Creative Northland, NZ Community Trust, Pub Charity Limited and Wynn Fraser, we are better enabled to look for new and innovative ways to serve our community and visitors to the Whangārei region.

For example, we enjoy welcoming in school groups, residents from aged care facilities and many, who are hobbyists and enthusiasts of vehicles and the machinery and innovation that shaped the industrial revolution (see Book an event).

As a charitable trust, we otherwise rely on donations, the sale of museum memorabilia and a door charge.
