Updated Hours of Operation, Collections Project Work
As of December 1, 2022, the Sarah Jane Williams Heritage Centre will be closed Mondays and Friday to facilitate on-going Museum and Archives collections project work.
Staff will be working behind-the-scenes to complete a full inventory and assessment of all Museum and Archives belongings. This project will ensure each museum belonging fits the collections mandate and standards as outlined in the organization’s Collections Management Policy.
As part of this review process, staff will follow established standards and guidelines for collections care as provided by the Canadian Museum Association, and Ontario Museum Association as well as the Standards for Community Museums in Ontario.
Improvements to storage and display areas at each of the Museum and Archives locations as well as thorough cleaning will also be undertaken, which will cause some intermittent unavailability within our spaces.
Thank you for your support throughout this ongoing project. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have questions or concerns regarding this matter.
