Please read carefully as different from normal. Tonight we are swapping nights to a Tuesday. We will spend an hour (from 6.30-7.30) exploring the Wildlife Photographer of the Year exhibition on at Auckland Museum and then at 7.30pm meet in the Grand foyer of the Museum to go for an hour long walk around the Domain looking for glow worms. You can just do either the first part of visiting the exhibition from 6.30-7.30 or the walk from 7.30pm. (if coming later add this in comment section.)

Bring a torch and warm clothes for the walk at 7.30pm.

We will meet at 6.25 in the Grand Foyer which is up the stairs from where we usually meet. There are toilets in the museum that you can use. We won't wait after 6.30pm for people who may be running late but you should be able to find us in exhibition.

Entry to the Wildlife Photographer of the Year exhibition is free with museum entry.

General Admission entrance is FREE for Auckland residents and Members, or by donation for those from the rest of New Zealand. You’ll need to bring your Membership or MyMuseum card, or proof of address such as a library card or utility bill.

#### Now in its sixty-first year, Wildlife Photographer of the Year from the Natural History Museum, London, showcases some of the most exceptional nature photography from across the globe.

***Note photography in the exhibition is NOT permitted***

You can of course arrive earlier and explore the sections of the museum that are open. Some are stilled closed due to work being carried out in some galleries.

There is limited free parking around the museum. Allow plenty of time to find a park. There is also a paid parking car park at the back of the museum (underground) and public transport options available.
The secure undercover carpark will be open. Enter the carpark after 5PM and park for a flat fee of $11.50 for the evening. I imagine it closes about 8.30-8.45pm.

In fairness to everyone please arrive on time.
Please refrain from attending if you are feeling unwell.
