Montague museum expansion underway
Published on August 17, 2011
The expansion at the Garden of the Gulf Museum in Montague is underway.
The government of Canada, the province of Prince Edward Island, the Town of Montague, and the Garden of the Gulf Museum have shared the cost of this project totalling $283,600.
Through this investment, a new 3,600 square foot building will be built, designed and equipped to store artifacts. The museum's current storage space will be renovated for public access, allowing visitors more of the museum to enjoy.
"The Garden of the Gulf Museum is delighted to be expanding its community outreach with a new storage facility to care for its growing collection, and subsequently to maximize the use of its 1888 heritage museum building," said Edgar Dewar, representative of the Garden of the Gulf Museum.
"The ultimate benefits go to the community in preserving P.E.I. heritage, in education and in visitor attraction to the area. This project also opens the door to potential exciting museum expansion in the future."
