Location

Although the Museum's address is 177 Church Street South, parking and accessible entrance is accessed by a laneway from Tracy Street on the east side of Cadzow Park.

Admission by donation. Please see Section L of the 2025 Fee By-law (page 16) for Service Schedule for more details about the services we offer and their associated fees.

Visiting the Archives for research 

Researchers are required to book an appointment to visit the archives. Booking an appointment ensures that all of our resources are available, including staff.

Providing archives staff with your research request before you arrive also allows time for staff to retrieve the appropriate records and ensure that all of our resources have been searched through thoroughly prior to your visit. This helps to ensure a positive research experience for both our patrons and our staff.
