Open Thursday - 10:00 am to 2:00 pm
 

Today, we recognize the first National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. 

We honour the residential school survivors and recognize the lives of those who did not return home.  

Today is a day to listen, to support Indigenous Peoples, and to continue to learn about Canada’s damaging legacy of colonial systems.  

The path to reconciliation is a journey that we must follow.  

THEMUSEUM is situated on the land of the Traditional Home of the Neutral, Haudenosaunee and Anishinaabe Peoples.
