Come celebrate International Museum Day at the Greater Vernon Museum &

will have something for everyone. Children can participate in traditional
crafts and games. Adults, and children, can choose from a selection of
scheduled activities including presentations on the newly restored Post
Office clock tower, a demonstration of the linotype printing press, guided
tours of the archives, or artifact cataloguing with the museum's registrar.

 

You can also meet with museum curator Ron Candy, participate in our "What Is
It?" contest, speak with our historical partners on site and view our new
"History of the Vernon Court Houses" display. Don't forget to leave yourself
some time to enjoy refreshments, have a peek in our gift shop and explore
the museum on your own, as well. 

 

Please call 250-542-3142 or see www.vernonmuseum.ca or
