Celebrate Int'l Museums Day at the Muskoka Lakes Museum 



           Visit for FREE from 10 am to 4pm on Saturday, May 18th and see what is new for the 2013 season.

Come and see a display of live snakes and turtles from the Georgian Bay Turtle Hospital and Scales Nature Park. 

Try the new Fur Trader’s game with the kids, and some of the favourite kid’s activities – the working magneto and dial phones, and the dress-up trunk.

Sneak a peek at our new Cottage Room exhibit, & take a look at the Anniversary exhibits – the 100th for the Anglican Church, the Peerless II supply boat birthday, plus new displays on the bi-centennial of the war of 1812-14. 

And don’t forget the new stuff in our Gift Shop!


Our events page has details on what is planned for the 2013 season.

The 2012 Artifact or Fiction Gala was a huge success! Thanks to everyone who came, and everyone who supported the event! For more information click here.

This past summer we had a War of 1812 Bicentennial Exhibit on loan from the Ontario Archives, shared with Muskoka Chautauqua and from our own efforts; throughout the months of June, July and August. These events remain significant today as one of the many conflicts between what would become Canada and The United States. We are happy to tell the story of this war from 200 years ago. Look for a new addition to the War of 1812 Bicentennial Exhibit in 2013.
