Proclamation for Museum Month 2025

Whereas throughout our community, museums, art galleries, and heritage sites reflect our local history and culture, and contribute to our collective problem-solving in the present and the future; and

Whereas this month provides an opportunity to increase awareness of our community’s museum and celebrate the contributions these institutions make to quality of life, education, and economic development; and

Whereas the Arnprior and District Museum welcomes visitors and tourists to our community while also serving as a community cultural hub; and

Whereas the Arnprior and District Museum is a key asset to education, employment, economic development, tourism, culture, and equity;

Now Therefore, I, Lisa McGee, Mayor of the Town of Arnprior, do hereby proclaim May 2025 as Museum Month in the Town of Arnprior and encourage all residents and visitors to drop into the Arnprior and District Museum and explore through the Museum’s social media to find out ways to join in this month and all year long!

Lisa McGee, Mayor

Town of Arnprior
