Organizer
Mission Community Archives
Open year round, the Mission Community Archives acquires, preserves and makes accessible all community records that document the social, economic, and political development of the District of Mission and the Fraser Valley Regional District Electoral Areas I, J, K and L. The holdings include the records of individuals and families, arts and community organizations, clubs and local businesses and some local government.
Staff provide reference services to the general public and offer outreach programs to stimulate increased public awareness of the value of the archives and its resources. This includes: exhibits to stimulate knowledge and appreciation for the community’s heritage; guided tours of the archives and information seminars on heritage preservation and information booths at local events about the Archives.
