The Collection museum in Lincoln is showcasing the links between Lincolnshire and New Zealand.
Maori Day, an attraction aimed at all age of museum visitor, sets up an exhibit to display items such as clothing and weapons of the Maori, the group of people who were historically indigenous to New Zealand.
The Collection will be putting on activities for people to get into the Maori spirit, with an arts and crafts section giving children the opportunity to craft their own Maori jewellery, as well as a chance to be involved in an instructed Haka dance.
The historical link between our county and the nation of New Zealand dates back to the early 19th century, when explorer Thomas Kendall, who was from Lincolnshire himself, voyaged to New Zealand on a missionary quest to convert the indigenous Maori culture towards Christianity.
