As a registered non-profit society, donors are key to ensuring the Canmore Museum can provide thousands of visitors with remarkable experiences each year. Building a vibrant and welcoming community which celebrates and connects with Canmore’s culture, history and natural environment — inside and outside the museum — begins with you.
Every gift supports our programs, exhibitions, maintains access to our collection, and allows us to continue to serve as a valuable resource for our community and visitors. Whether it’s a one-time investment, a recurring donation, a legacy gift, or a sponsorship, your support matters to us and it is greatly appreciated.
The Canmore Museum exists to bring people from all backgrounds together around the history, culture, art, and stories of this place. Our impact lives in the areas of collective learning, community building and belonging, social cohesion and social sustainability. Our work ignites shared experiences and connections through exhibitions, access to our collections, education and public programs for residents and visitors of all ages. And we want you to be a part of it!
A donation speaks to your belief in the value of bringing people together to celebrate and build a stronger more connected Canmore today, and for future generations to come.
