WOW & Classic Cars Museum

New ‘Symbols of Culture' Exhibition on Now!

November 2011 - May 2012

Brancott Estate WOW® Awards Show is a symbol of New Zealand creative culture, a little Kiwi ingenuity from one woman’s vision. The WOW® & Classic Museum welcomes home a selection of the 2011 Show garments on display. The feature garment of the exhibition is the 2011 Air New Zealand Kiwi Icons section winner ‘Isabelle’ by USA designer Lorene Ireland. A very detailed piece inspired by the designer’s grandmother s 100 year old shell collection.

New look and interactive displays a part of a long term revamp in the Classic Car Gallery feature the Tail Fin era; bold and outrageous automobiles which epitomise American design trends of the 50’s and early 60’s. A little Italian flair is also featured in the new display, showcasing the elegance and seductiveness of Italian cars between 1930’s and 1990’s.

The 2011 Brancott Estate Supreme WOW Award Winner 'Hylonome' by Mary Wing To of the UK, is also featured in this exhibition and will be on display until 10 November, and again later in 2012.

The Museum has two main galleries with exhibitions that are changed twice a year. Each exhibition change will be uploaded here, so keep checking in!
