Welcome to the Pemberton and District Museum, located in the heart of the Pemberton Valley, the traditional and unceded territory of the Lil’wat Nation, which has been here since time immemorial.
The Pemberton Museum has over 2,500 artifacts, 2,000 photographs, and over 20 meters of archival and reference materials, which have been collected since 1982. Our mandate is to collect, preserve, and display artifacts associated with human activity in the District.
Our one-acre site is home to nine buildings, the earliest built in 1897, and a collection of over 2,500 artifacts, 2,000 photographs, and over 20 meters of archival and reference materials. Our exhibits include examples of early pioneer life, farming, schooling, commerce, transportation, and industry, as well as the ingenuity, creativity, and artistry of those who came before us.
Open to the public between June and October, we host group and private tours, school field trips, and community and private events and offer our guests a variety of fun activities to engage and educate.
We invite you to step back in time and explore our unique history. We look forward to your visit!
