Christmas at the Museum promises festive family fun

Everyone is invited to experience Christmases of the past in the permanent exhibits at the Campbell River Museum on Saturday from 1-4 p.m.

Tour through the festively decorated galleries while listening to Christmas carols being sung by the Campbell River Singers from 1:30-2 p.m. and then again from 2:15-2:45 p.m.  There will be Christmas stories and crafts, and from 2:45-3:45 p.m. You will have the chance to whisper your Christmas wishes in old St Nicholas’ ear.

From 1-2:30 p.m. will be Christmas Lego, where kids can build brick ornaments for the Lego tree in the Festival of Trees.  Pre-registration for Lego is recommended as space is limited.  Phone 250-287-3103 to register.

While you are at the Museum, take a break from the hustle and bustle of the Christmas season by immersing yourself in the Festival of Trees.  Each tree has been thoughtfully decorated in a different theme and prizes are being awarded for the trees that are the Most Unique, Most Traditional, Best of Festival, and People’s Choice.

For more information about these festive events call the Museum at 250-287-3103 or go to www.crmuseum.ca.
