Te Hīkoi museum was opened in December 2007, with collection items from Riverton Heritage Society, which was previously Wallace Early Settlers Association (whose collection began in 1925). The society is now part of Riverton Heritage Museum and Tourist Centre Trust, who own the premises and operate the museum.
