Sometimes, things have to get a little worse befor

Sometimes, things have to get a little worse before they can get better! Our Conservation Associate, Megan, is carefully restoring a land document from the early 1800s. Her first step was removing the degraded tape – the only thing that was holding it together. Next, she’ll clean and flatten the document before repairing it and making it whole again.

Have something special you want repaired? Get in touch with Megan at
mfisher@kelownmuseums.ca.

Get ready for a fascinating peek into BC's past!

Get ready for a fascinating peek into BC's past!

On September 11, we're thrilled to host Maurice Guibord from the Société historique francophone de la Colombie-Britannique. He'll be sharing the incredible stories of the early Francophone ranchers who shaped the BC Interior Plateau.

While we'll dive into the lives of eight prominent families—Boucherie, Guichon, Isnardy, Lequime, Minnaberriet, Patenaude, Pigeon, and Versepuech / Gaspard—this isn't your typical history lesson. Maurice will also explore the complexities of this history, including
the colonization of Indigenous lands and how Indigenous family members navigated their place within it.

Join us for a candid and eye-opening look at this unique part of our history. We can't wait to see you there!
