National Army Museum Exhibition
Sat, 1 January – Thur, 1 September State Highway One & Hassett Drive,
Waiouru armymuseum.co.nz
The National Army Museum’s latest exhibition focuses on the fateful voyage of the Kiwi troopship TAHITI which sailed unknowingly into a global pandemic. The Death Ship: A Fateful Voyage is an interactive exhibition which turns the clock back more than 100 years to the flu pandemic that hit New Zealand in late 1918, a devastating blow at the end of WWI. The exhibition allows the visitor to ‘step aboard’ the TAHITI and experience how the conditions gave rise to the outbreak.
