Sharing <strong>the</strong> Past<br />

Millions of people worldwide visit museums each year, seeking<br />

knowledge, enjoyment and greater understanding of o<strong>the</strong>r<br />

people, places and times. Most adults will have tucked away<br />

a memory of that first, awed impression of <strong>the</strong> mummy in <strong>the</strong> Egyptian<br />

display or of Rajah <strong>the</strong> elephant with his tatty tail, or of entering <strong>the</strong><br />

meeting house with its looming carvings and glittering paua eyes.<br />

Such memories still spark enthusiasm for <strong>the</strong> <strong>Museum</strong> as a place to<br />

share with <strong>the</strong>ir own families.<br />
