Upcoming

2027 will mark the Sooke Region Museum’s 50th anniversary.

As we look to the future, we are taking time to review the displays, and the stories presented in them. With that, in the years leading up to the 50th anniversary, the interior displays will be changing.

Our exhibits are the result of hard-working and caring volunteers and staff from when the museum first opened in 1977 to present. We hope to re-envision the interior displays with the same amount of hard-work and care. The displays will change but the essence of the museum will remain. Always at the centre will be the people and the stories of the Sooke Region.
