The Town of New Tecumseth is inviting residents to help shape the future of the Museum on the Boyne’s offerings through a new Museum and Heritage Community Survey.
As part of a re-imagining of the Museum, the Town is seeing community input on collections and artifacts, programs and events, and exhibits and visitor experiences.
Feedback will help ensure the Museum continues to reflect the stories, history, and evolving character of New Tecumseth.
“The Museum on the Boyne holds the stories that connect our past to our future,” said New Tecumseth Mayor Richard Norcross. “By inviting residents to share their ideas and perspectives, we’re ensuring the museum reflects the people, heritage, and community pride that defines New Tecumseth.”
The survey is open to all residents, including history enthusiasts, families, students, newcomers, and long-time community members.
Input will help guide future programming and exhibitions that are engaging, inclusive, and meaningful for all ages.
You can participate in the survey by visiting online at newtecusmeth.ca/YourMuseum.
