D	Dave Bodaly on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I enjoy the summer programs they offer, as it helps raise awareness of all areas of the island ?
K	Krystal Bernier on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This museum is top notch, a fantastic starting point for discovering the diverse culture of Gabriola island. I was especially amused by the hippie exhibit, something I never expected to see in a museum. The staff is very helpful and informative and the museum has a good gift shop. There is a self guided garden walk of which a brochure can be found in the museum. Do come here before seeing the petroglyphs and take a photo of the petroglyphs sign so you can identify them upon viewing. The petroglyphs trail has one sign at the entrance and no identification points marked along the trail after that, it's like a treasure hunt which is fun in itself.
V	Vanessa Udy on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This museum takes the Truth and Reconciliation Commission's Calls to Action seriously and is working on implementing them. They have updated the display, which now includes much more information and oral history on the Snuneymuxw, the original caretakers of the land. It's a big 180 from my last visit, where I was confronted by a horribly bigoted volunteer who was formerly an Indian Affairs employee and carried his prejudice into the work he did with the museum.

K	Kim Rhindress on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Surprising petroglyph reproductions in the parking lot. Ancient aboriginal tools and a cool little gift shop. We found the person at the desk to be very friendly and informative. By donation and we picked up a neat foraging guide from the large collection of guides as well. Definitely worth a visit. Plan on 30 minutes.
J	Julian Worker on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A wonderful museum with great information for visitors to Gabriola Island. Also plenty of educational matter for people like me who know little about water tables, rock, glaciation, and trees.
