The Heritage Museum
Nov 24th: Closed for the Season
The Museum will re-open again in spring 2025, please check back for those dates. In season, the Museum is usually open on Sundays from 11am to 3pm.
The Heritage Museum’s ‘Times They Are A-Changing Exhibit’, is an opportunity to relive your memories. See the changes that time has created in our lives.
- Remember Rock and Roll, the 50s Diner, a rotary phone, the school strap and don’t forget the ‘Out House’.
- Play the ‘GUESS THE OBJECT GAME’, it’s fun for the whole family.
When it re-opens in March 2025, you can see all this and more from 11am to 3pm on Sundays at the Heritage Museum, 2851 Church Way, in Mill Bay.
