About

The Museum at Campbell River stands on the Island Highway at Fifth Avenue in Campbell River. It collects, cares for and shares the history of Campbell River and the surrounding region, and it is one of the best places in town to learn how the community and its coastline came to be.

Visitors can spend an hour or an afternoon in the galleries, and researchers can make use of the museum's archives. Families will find kids' camps during school breaks, and in season the museum runs its History on the Water boat tours, which pair a trip on the water with local history.

The building also has spaces for rent, including the Van Isle Theatre, which makes it a venue for talks, screenings, meetings and private events.

Hours change with the seasons. In summer the museum is open daily from 10 am to 5 pm. In winter it opens Tuesday to Sunday from noon to 5 pm, and in December it is open daily from 10 am to 5 pm. Admission is $10 for adults, $8 for seniors, $6 for students and $25 for a family. Parking is free and the museum is accessible.
