    Special show-and-tell Collectors Night happening at the Collingwood Legion Military Museum

    Sharing is SO MUCH APPRECIATED!

    Collingwood, ON [4 November 2024] – The Collingwood Museum and the Collingwood Legion Military Museum are pleased to announce the latest installation in the popular Community Collectors series.

    Join Museum staff and Legion members on Thursday, November 21 from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. for a special come-and-go Collectors Night at the Royal Canadian Legion, Branch 63, located at 490 Ontario Street. Explore the historic displays in the Legion’s Military Museum and learn about the contributions of local men and women to Canada’s war effort. Admission to the event is free.

    Do you have medals issued to past and present family members in your personal collection? Bring them for a show-and-tell. Legion members and resource materials will be available to help with identification if needed.

    Since the beginning of October, historic items from the Collingwood Legion have been on display in the Collingwood Museum’s Community Collectors exhibit case. Items on display include uniforms, medals, and equipment from the First and Second World Wars. This special exhibit will be on display until the end of 2024.

    The Community Collectors exhibit, in addition to From Vimy To Juno, a travelling exhibit from the Juno Beach Centre, will be available for viewing following the Remembrance Day ceremony taking place on the Museum grounds on November 11. The Collingwood Museum will remain open until 1:00 p.m. An in-house exhibit entitled Funding Victory: The Power of Posters during the Second World War will also be available.
