News
A major project to record oral histories and digitize Museum Exhibits has begun with the support of the 2024-2025 Northern Neighbours Community Foundation grant.
Membership details here.
The museum has a wall of Family History booklets completed by many of the Cranberry Portage families and these are very popular to visitors. If you have not submitted yours, Family History Questionnaires are available from the Museum.
Over the years the Cranberry Portage Heritage Museum has received donations from individuals/businesses In Memory of a Loved One. These have been acknowledged on our Donations Page. The executive has now decided to separate these from the regular Donations and will be making up a new acknowledgement book and these donations will be posted yearly on our Website and Facebook page.
To purchase a membership or to make a donation drop into the museum or contact Mabel Brewer, the Museum treasurer, at 204-472-3031
Volunteering
Anyone interested in volunteering to help out with suggestions or work projects in any way please let one of the directors know. This is your Museum and we need your help. We look forward to seeing everyone as soon as possible.
