Early Summer Exhibit
The theme for the summer display at the Wallace and Area Museum is based on the Museum’s Mi’kmaq basket collection.
When the Museum Society was given the Davison / Kennedy home for a museum it was left full of the every day items used by the Davison & Kennedy families in the nineteenth and twentieth century. Members of the same family lived in the house from its construction in 1839 until it was turned over to the community in 1990.
All the people that lived in the house seemed to want to save the everyday articles of life. There were large collections of clothing, dishes, toys, newspapers, magazines. One collection found in the house and of great interest and significance is the 56 Mi’kmaq baskets dating from the 1880s to present day.
The Mi’kmaq people were the first known inhabitants of what is now the maritime provinces.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The theme for the Museum’s annual heritage mural, painted by local artist Barbara Clark, is the Mi’kmaq people and basket making. Barbara used the inspiration of a 1791 painting by a Halifax Customs agent Binney. The painting shows various aspects of Mi’kmaq life
Late Summer Exhibit
The second display for summer 2012 will open mid July. The theme is a celebration of the village heritage buildings.
The rich history of Wallace is reflected in its buildings. This display looks into the story of some of Wallace’s most recognized buildings.
The Senator’s lodge, the lighthouse, Charman House, Capt. Grant’s house, the Hotel, St Matthew’s Presbyterian Church, Barlow Morris’ General Store, the Battye Hat Shop and St. John’s United,

Our four hour tour package includes the three E's: exploration, education, and enjoyment. Previously held just once a month, these four hour tours have increased in availability!
Explore the Classic Section of the Joggins Fossil Cliffs with an experienced guide and discover million year old tetrapod footprints, large fossilized trees, and primitive seed ferns.
Included in the tour is a gourmet, freshly made lunch from our own Roundhouse Cafe. This lunch includes a drink, sandwich, fruit, and a treat! Our chefs, Joyce and Corey, can accommodate dietary preferences.
Our first four hour tour of the 2012 season will be taking place on Sunday, June 10th at 9:30am. To book a spot on this tour, or to enquire about booking another tour, please contact us at 1-902-251-2727, extension 231, or through e-mail at bookings@jogginsfossilcliffs.net
We look forward to exploring with you!
