Port Dover Harbour Museum


  • Port Dover Harbour Museum 44 Harbour Street Port Dover, ON, N0A 1N0 Canada (map)

Special mention to our Port Dover Harbour Museum. In speaking to Angela about what may be happening at the Museum over the holidays she reminded me of the New Year's Day Levee, you can see that video HERE.

Hot off the Press: "But even more exciting, the Port Dover Harbour Museum is happy to announce that our Collections Storage Reorganization project is taking place in January of 2018.  We have ordered new storage furniture to better house their collections, so that Port Dover’s history will be preserved for generations.  Components of this project have been taking place over the last 3 years, as museum staff and volunteers have been continuously working with the archival and artifact collections.  Thus far, the most significant aspect has been the cataloguing of archival photographs, and moving those into museum quality storage albums. 
 
The next phase is the installation of more appropriate storage units for our collections. To facilitate this process the museum will be closed to the public from January 2nd to Monday, January 22nd. We would like to express our gratitude to Norfolk County, the Port Dover Community Foundation, the Vittoria & District Foundation and the Audrey S. Hellyer Foundation for their support of this project!  This project has also been made possible through a grant from the Government of Canada through the Department of Canadian Heritage, via the Museums Assistance Program.
 
Our sincerest thanks to all of our members and supporters who have donated to the project and to our volunteers who have donated countless hours to help make this project a reality.
 
We do apologize for any inconvenience this temporary closure may cause."
