Summer Museum Camp!

For the first time this summer, the Dundas Museum and Archives is proud to offer two weeks of Museum Camp for ages 5-10!

From July 15th-19th, we are offering Museum Mystery, a fun-filled week of museum-themed activities.

From August 12-16th, we are offering Dundas Cactus Camp, where campers will work toward decorating the museum’s parade float, culminating in a ride on our vintage 1961 fire engine in the Thursday night Cactus Festival Parade!

Both camps will also include lots of arts and crafts, outdoor play, and exploration of local trails and parks.
