On Sunday night the Auckland Museum was lit up in blue and white in solidarity with Israel, sparking a protest of around 100 Palestinian supporters.
Police were called to diffuse a verbal confrontation between Israeli and Palestinian supporters gathered at the bottom of the hill below the museum at about 8 o'clock, and the light projection was turned off by 9.
The Auckland Museum has so far refused to front on RNZ.
Alternative Jewish Voices co-founder Marilyn Garson spoke to Charlotte Cook.
