ABOUT THE MUSEUM

Museum History

The purpose of the Nelson and District Museum, Archives, Art Gallery and Historical Society is to run a sustainable, integrated organization that actively promotes, through exhibitions and programming, the knowledge, appreciation and understanding of history and art.

Nelson Museum, Archives & Gallery resides on the traditional unceded territory of the Sinixt and Yaqan Nukiy Ktunaxa Nations. We thank and acknowledge the Sinixt, Yaqan Nukiy Ktunaxa, and the Métis people for the opportunity to live, learn and share in cultural experiences in this beautiful place.

CORPORATE RESPONSIBILITY

The Nelson Museum, Archives & Gallery is thankful for the support we receive from municipal, regional, provincial and federal levels of government, which allows us to enact the Museum’s strategic plan and fulfill our mandate.
