Be the first to own a Pompeii exhibition catalogue!

Be one of the first people to buy the Pompeii catalogue



The catalogues for A Day in Pompeii have just arrived, and we’re giving you the sneak opportunity to be the first to own one.

Unpacking the Pompeii exhibition catalogue
A Day in Pompeii exhibition catalogue. Melbourne: Museum Victoria Publishing, 2009. $24.99

The catalogues aren’t going on sale to the public for a while, but you can purchase one from Te Papa Store between now and Tuesday 1 December for $24.99.

A Day in Pompeii tells of life in the ancient Roman town of Pompeii and is wonderfully illustrated with a selection of the frescos, mosaics, and objects that are shown in the exhibition.

You won’t find the catalogue on our website yet because this is an offer just for you from Te Papa Store.

Not only is this a great opportunity, but by printing off this page and bringing it in with you when you purchase your catalogue, we’ll put you in the draw to win a bottle of wine from La Bella Italia. (Don’t worry if you’re under 18, we have another prize for you.)

If you aren’t in Wellington to purchase a copy, you can still be in to win. Just order your book by emailing tepapastore@tepapa.govt.nz with Facebook Pompeii offer in the subject line.
