COVID-19

At Touchstones Nelson Museum, there is nothing more important to us than the health and safety of our employees, volunteers and amazing community! Following the advice of the Public Health Agency of Canada and our Provincial Health Officer, Dr. Bonnie Henry, we will remain closed to the public until further notice.

Please continue to visit us on Facebook, Instagram, and here on our website. We are a resilient, responsible, healthy community moving confidently forward. Please take care of yourselves and each other and wash your hands a lot.
