Light Up The Museum - 2025

The holiday season is upon us and the museum grounds are ready to twinkle, sparkle and glow. Each year, with the help of a group of wonderful sponsors, new light displays are installed. You are invited to join us to see these lights flicker on at 6:45pm on Friday, December 5th, 2025. The event kicks off at 6:30. Enjoy the snowy grounds, fireside treats, a playlist of festive favourites, some holiday craft stations and warm beverages. Step into the gazebo to greet our special guest from the North Pole or warm up inside our historic house, where the Christmas spirit continues across our local history exhibits.
