Currently, we operate the Charleswood Museum next door to the current Library and have increased hours of operation during the Centennial Year. Lately we have had significant increases in donations of artifacts and contributions to the museum, but space is too limited to properly display artifacts and serve the community as we hope to. The City’s desire for a mutli-use facility for upgraded library and other services is both practical and timely.

The Charleswood Historical Society will request space in the new library facility for preparation, storage and display of artifacts, as well as classroom and meeting room space to host community groups. We will make such a proposal to the City of Winnipeg before April 8 and are seeking the support of other interested individuals and organizations.
