Our note
This is a small local museum in one building, so plan a short stop rather than a whole morning. Nothing about group bookings, prices or the youngest age they take is anywhere on their site, so phone first and ask what they can set up for you.

What the children do

The museum is open to the public Tuesday to Saturday and its displays cover the early development and history of the region, with a temporary exhibit area alongside. The current display is about life in Comox in 1945 and 1946. The site does not describe school or daycare programs, a group rate, a booking route for groups or how far ahead to ask, so a group visit has to be arranged by phone. One of their own news posts describes a group of children coming in for a museum art tour, so children's groups have been hosted before even though nothing is advertised.

Walk through the museum rooms and look at wall panels of photographs, documents and objects about the early history of Comox, plus whatever is in the temporary exhibit area at the time.

Good to know

Nothing is published about toilets, somewhere to eat lunch, or parking for a bus, and the museum never says what it charges. One phone call would settle all of it before you commit.

Sources disagree. Their own pages give two different opening times. One says 10am to 4pm, another says 12pm to 4pm, both Tuesday to Saturday. Worth checking when you book, especially if you want a morning.
Sources disagree. Two different email addresses appear on their site. If one bounces, try the other. We use the one from their contact page.
Sources disagree. Their contact page and their archives page give phone numbers that differ by one digit. If one does not connect, try the other. We use the contact page number.
