Reviews of Aratoi Wairarapa Museum of Art and History
G. M.
Always super intriguing exhibitions either visiting or from collection. Good art to buy too. Very friendly shop staff. Whenever in Masterton always take a look in
N.
Went to see the Waiararapa AT Review competition. What a wonderful collection of art by terrific local people. Grand variety too.
In another gallery room.
No-one could help but be amazed at the artistry of Natasha Cousens and her display - Beyond the Red Flowers.
Just wonderful.
H. S.
More of a local gallery than a museum - I think we possibly visited in between exhibitions? It's still worth a look if you're about though.

Amazing, new things to see all the time. Would recommend if you are visiting Masterton!

Great gallery, lovely gift shop, charming staff

Helpful staff. Tempting shop and stimulating exhibitions. Ideal school holiday visit
P. T.
It's a small space expanding into the old church. For me the old hall was where the more interesting art lie. Free to enter. Have a short stroll through even if art is not your thing.

I loved my very first visit to Aratoi. Excellent exhibitions and very friendly staff. Hope to get back again very soon. Very inspirational seeing other great New Zealand Artist.

Amazing local art here it was so great to see how talented our artists are here and had to support them as there work was so good. Go here you will love it and next to it is ConArt which has artists working and a shop selling more art.

A small little gallery which deserves to be bigger. Disappointing guest welcoming, no explanation as to what I was going to see. They have to up their customer service a lot. The gallery itself had good displays and some careful planning.
V. S.
Wonderful Saturday staffer and her volunteer, so knowledgeable and friendly. Shop system seemed chaotic as product was hard to find due to some weekday staffer having moved everything and not communicated where. Same staffer had also made the shop computer system illogical and impossible to use. Wish the shop was laid out better with more product. Not much Kirsty Gardiner on display! The gallery holds some NZ artist gems. Wish the Saturday lady was on more during the week as the front counter could do with a happy, smiling and helpful friendly face.

Each time I visit Masterton I go to see the displays at Aratoi. After booking accommodation at the I Site, which is next door I looked at the 50 years celebrations and the other displays. I particularly liked the painting which is linked to the story of the death of 48 Japanese after they escaped at Fetherstone. The paintings by Jan Eagle are also worth looking at.
C.
Good photos of the galaxy. Nice quiet place to walk around in. I think it’s a nice place for kids😁🏫.
Y. W.
I brought two lovely prints and the exhibition that got extended due to Covid-19. The prints are now on the wall and look amazing.
N. S.
Great exhibitions to see, quality art for sale in both gallery shop & some of the exhibitions, good range, some are just for show & not for sale, depending on exhibition on at the time. Also kids holiday classes on offer as well
W. W.
So many beautiful spaces @ Aratoi - the courtyard, the main gallery, the Wesley Wing for live music - Wai Word has hosted several events here.
J. D.
Long wait, lots of people, staff are overwhelmed by sheer number of consumers and one KFC is not enough in NP.
Parking and access to KFC is terrible.
A. T.
Excellent rainy day activity. Free and quick with kids
J. S.
Easily one of the best provincial Galleries in NZ. Very knowledgeable staff. Fantastic asset to the Wairarapa community.
