HEADSTONE PRESERVATION PROJECT The Maple Ridge and Whonnock cemeteries have graves dating back hundreds of years. Many of the people buried there do not have anyone left to care for their resting place. We are once again looking for locals who value historical preservation to help with the important task of cleaning and maintaining the headstones in our cemeteries.

Museum on the Move brings free, accessible, and inclusive museum learning to all corners of Maple Ridge.

Museum on the Move brings free, accessible, and inclusive museum learning to all corners of Maple Ridge. The goal of this project is to bring the museum’s stories and programs to the residents and visitors of our city by setting up a mini “pop-up” museum in locations that are frequented by the public as they go about their usual activities. This autumn, find us at Our Neck of the Woods, Rivers Day, National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, and Repair Café!
