While our lessons are fun and engaging, our teachers are able to include both theory and practical elements into each lesson! And at the end of each term, we offer the chance to perform in a live concert, showcasing what you have been working on.
Weekly lessons with one of our great tutors will help students to stay focussed on achieving their goals and maintain good playing habits from the beginning; something youtube cannot provide.
At the Napier Music Academy, we encourage our students to be a part of a band or ensemble to practise their skills learnt in their lessons and apply them in a group situation. Each group is mentored by one of our amazing and experienced tutors, and together you will work towards regular live performances and music competitions including rockquest, battle of the bands, pacifica beats and many more!
Through group lessons, holiday programmes, bands and ensembles, students will feel a sense of belonging and importance, and make lifelong friends.

MTG inhabits three buildings of distinct character – an art deco masterpiece, a modernist gem, and a light-filled gallery that looks out across the magnificent Hawke’s Bay.
MTG Hawke’s Bay is home to a nationally significant collection of art and objects that form the foundation of distinctive exhibitions and a world-class research facility. The MTG Theatre hosts a lively programme of film and performing arts.
MTG Hawke’s Bay uses its collection to tell the stories of New Zealand with assurance and style. This is the place to get a fresh perspective on the stories you know including the 1931 Hawke’s Bay earthquake. Here the art that adorns our walls and the objects that fill our homes come together alongside precious photographs and documents to creatively illustrate the life stories of successive generations of New Zealanders.
Visit our fabulous MTG shop which sells a range of MTG publications and merchandise inspired by the magic of the Museum collections.
MTG Hawke’s Bay look forward to welcoming visitors from all over the world to share in the complex and fascinating history of New Zealand through the lens of a distinct and characterful region
