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! 

The Public Health Agency of Canada and the Provincial Health Officer, Dr. Bonnie Henry, have assessed the public health risk associated with COVID-19 in Canada as increasing and unpredictable. Using an abundance of caution, we have decided to close our doors to the public for at least 2 weeks. This includes the Shawn Lamb Archives.

The situation with COVID-19 is changing daily. We will continue to follow the guidance of the Public Health Agency of Canada and the Provincial Health Officer.  

All public programming events scheduled for the next two weeks are postponed.

Our Annual General Meeting, scheduled for April 14, will be postponed until further notice, including the pre-AGM Members’ Meet and Greet with the E.D./I.E.D.

The Gala, scheduled for June 6, is currently in full development mode. We are choosing to move forward at this point.  As the situation is rapidly changing, if we need to postpone the Gala, we will make that decision in a timely manner.  

We miss you already! Please feel free to visit us on Facebook or Instagram.

We are a resilient, responsible, healthy community moving confidently forward. 

Please take care of yourselves and each other and wash your hands a lot.
