Participating in Doors Open Winnipeg was great fun! We enjoyed talking with over 300 people over two days about our building and our museum. They were interested, engaged and expressed how much they appreciated everything our museum offered.
Can't wait to do this again next year!
Day One of Doors Open Winnipeg is done and what a day!
We opened at 10AM, earlier than most venues, and we had people waiting for us to open.
Thank you to everyone who came to visit us today and welcome to everyone who's going to visit us tomorrow. We're open from 10 to 4.
Admission is FREE!

We are located at 680 Harrow Street in Winnipeg. The building we're in was built in 1931 for the Winnipeg Electric Railway Company as a substation and it is still a working substation. Some of the original panels are still in use today.
We're one of the Doors Open Winnipeg participants that open at 10 instead of noon but we close at 4.

Another reason to come here during Doors Open Winnipeg is to see our really cool truck!
