A warm welcome from the Friends of the Fiji Museum.
The Friends of the Fiji Museum Society was formed in 1986 and has expanded
to include leaders from the business, government, educational, non-governmental
and diplomatic communities as well as locals, residents and visitors to
Fiji.
Member
dues and donations to the Friends of the Fiji Museum go towards assisting
in the funding of improvements in areas such as: better storage; recording
facilities for the reserve collection; conducting research on the collection,
Fijian culture and general history; printing new and reprinting old publications;
improving and expanding facilities; promoting satellite exhibitions and
educational programmes; and the continued development of the growing professional
staff.
Providing
access to the most comprehensive collection of Fijian artifacts in existence,
plus collections from the other communities that have settled here over
the years, our goal is to assist the museum in its efforts to upgrade
facilities and resources.
The
Fiji Museum should serve as a dynamic institution for the benefit of the
local and international community. With today's communications and technology,
the global community can share in the exchange of information and resources
in support of the continued growth and knowledge of Fijian culture and
society.
If
you would like to support the Fiji Museum and assist the Friends with
its endeavour to create an institution worthy of national pride and international
recognition, join the Friends of the Fiji Museum now!
