The average visitor spends about 45 minutes in the museum.

Admission to our museum is by donation. This means there is no set fee, and you pay whatever you are able to. We appreciate your donations, as they allow us to continue providing quality experiences to visitors and Gananoque residents alike!

We would love for you to contact us to arrange a meeting regarding your potential donation. After we arrange a meeting, the object will be brought to the museum, where we will fill out a Temporary Custody Receipt and complete a Source-Donor Questionnaire. Using this information, the Artifact Oversight Committee will decide whether to recommend the object to be accepted by the Gananoque Town Council. Remember: donations which are brought to the museum without having first arranged a meeting will NOT be accepted.

Our admission is by donation, and is separate from the entry fee at the Boat Museum.
