I’m from Rochester NY but my fiancé is from Lindsay, and I always drag him to museums when I come up to Canada lol. This is a great little museum. Not to mention, it’s free to get in (we did donate though). The gift shop is very reasonably priced too, surprisingly. Most museum gift shops are extremely overpriced. But here I got a nice coffee mug for $8! I’ve seen other shops charge $20+ for a mug.

We stumbled across this little gem, and am very glad that we did! Staff were very friendly and helpful and I met the friendly dog too. I really enjoyed learning about the area and some science topics too. Great collections with clear descriptions about what you are looking at. Nice items in gift shop area. Entrance was based on a donation. Thank you for helping to make our visit pleasurable.

Nice museum, includes an academic program for aspiring museum managers and curators. I saw some very well-presented student projects in August, and the class group project today. "Words & Beyond: How communication brings us together." Be sure to visit soon!
