Shelley Gall

Shelley Gall

Treasurer

Shelley is Ngati Kuta, Ngapuhi on her father’s side and Ngati Haua, Tuwharetoa on her mother’s side. She returned home to Rawhiti in 2013 and is living on her whanau land at Rawhiti.

Shelley wanted to be involved in the Russell Museum Trust as she believes Museums are the keepers of the past and is an integral part of both Māori and Pakeha history. To this end if she can play even a small part in keeping this legacy going, she is thankful for the opportunity to be a trustee for the Russell Museum.

Contact us to volunteer

There are plenty of opportunities to get involved with the Museum, from cataloguing and scanning or welcoming our visitors.
