About the Museum
Our Vision
Tweed Regional Museum collects and shares the stories of our community. We create connection, inspire wonder and provide unique experiences in unexpected places.
Our beautiful Museum – a mix of heritage architecture and contemporary interpretations – is home to extraordinary cultural experiences with a year-round program of innovative exhibitions, exciting events, engaging programs and learning experiences.
We present a range of public programs and activities that delve into themes, stories and ideas presented in our exhibitions, from objects in the Collection and people and places in our community.
You can also find us on the road with our Museum on Wheels, aka the MoW, a first of its kind mobile Museum. The MoW brings exhibitions, objects, workshop and unique experiences to festivals, markets, events and special locations throughout the Tweed and beyond.
