Join us on September 24 & 25 as we kick off the national Culture Days celebrations with our annual Outdoor Artisan Market! From 12 to 4 pm all weekend. Wander about the museum property to check out Kootenay artisans and vendors and celebrate the beauty and creativity fostered in this region. This is a licensed event thanks to the Flying Steamshovel, and we'll have live music supported by the Rossland Art Centre Society, so it's going to be a fun weekend!
