*Museum of Surrey receives Not-For-Profit Business of the Year Clovie Award*



*Surrey, BC – *Surrey’s municipal museum received accolades Wednesday night
at The Clovie’s, Cloverdale’s Business Excellence Awards
<http://www.theclovies.com/>. The Clovie for Not-For-Profit Business of the
Year was gratefully accepted by Museum Manager, Lynn Saffery.



Museum of Surrey values community and connection, welcoming every citizen
of Surrey to the Museum and Cloverdale. “We strive to be accessible in
every sense,” explains Councillor Guerra, Chair of the Parks, Recreation
and Culture Committee. “This award highlights the impact the Museum has had
in the Cloverdale Town Centre. We are honoured to be a part of this vibrant
and family-friendly community.”



Accessibility, engagement, and connection are important values at Museum of
Surrey, and this includes ensuring that all visitors can enjoy the stories,
experiences, and aspirations of Surrey’s diverse communities for free. This
is possible, thanks to the generosity of the Friends of the Surrey Museum
and Archives Society.



With the many challenges from the COVID-19 pandemic, Councillor Guerra
notes that free admission, and safety, is more important now than ever
before.

their top priority, the Museum is following citywide COVID safety
guidelines.
