Guelph Museums celebrates Guelph’s birthday with behind the scenes tours

GUELPH, ON, April 16, 2015: On April 23, the City of Guelph is turning 188. To celebrate, Guelph Museums is hosting special behind-the-scenes tours of the Civic Museum and its permanent collection.

The tours will acquaint visitors with Guelph’s rich history, and provide a unique opportunity to see artifacts not currently on display in our galleries. At the same time, visitors will learn about the work of a museum curator and how artifacts are stored and preserved in our collections.

Tours start at 11:00 am and 2:00 pm, and are free with the price of admission. There is limited capacity. Reserve your spot at guelph.ca/museum.

Guelph Civic Museum is located at 52 Norfolk St. Admission is $5 and $15 for a family (including up to two adults and three children).
