BC Museums Week Webinar: Building the Future of History Project and the Maritime Museum of BC

May 15, 12:00 PM – 1:00 PM

After years of searching for a new home, the Maritime Museum of British Columbia (MMBC) is exploring an exciting new opportunity to return to Victoria’s iconic Inner Harbour. In collaboration with the Esquimalt and Songhees Nations, a proposal has been put forward to create a new, dual-purpose historical site that would reshape how coastal history is presented. Tentatively called “The Future of History,” this project envisions a re-imagined Steamship Building and an adjoining floating structure that would be dedicated to the Songhees and Esquimalt Nations.

Learn about the Future of History Project, how it came to be, the collaborative partnerships, and what happens next!
