boysOur programming staff works hard to ensure your visit to the museum is entertaining, educational and memorable!

“Thank you for changing the
stereotype of museums.”

CO, University of Lethbridge
Education student

“This museum isn’t a collection of dusty
artifacts encased in Plexiglas boxes which
students file past, careful not to touch
anything. Rather, it’s a vibrant, interactive
assortment of stimulating objects and
activities, inviting students to experience
history first-hand.”

Travis, University of Lethbridge student
