About
Join us on Monday Sept 29, from 5:30pm–8:00pm as we explore the fascinating history of toys - specifically wooden toys from the Victorian era! Try out the Jacob’s ladder, yoyo, cork gun, and more then let your creativity run wild as you design and create your own spinning top toy to take home.
Organizer
City of New Westminster
New Westminster’s Museums & Archives are managed across three city locations: Anvil Centre, Irving House and the Samson V Museum. The operations care for over 36,000 objects, 50,000 photographs, and 500 linear meters of archival records that celebrate and document our city’s history. Our exhibits focus on the land, people, and development of the place now known as New Westminster. We aspire to be fun and entertaining places of learning and use the objects in the museum’s collection as an entry-point to inquiry, discussion, and exploration about the city.
