Lang Pioneer Village Museum Explores Exciting New Chapter; Community Members Invited to Participate in New Transition Committee!
A recent service review highlighted opportunities to evolve how the Museum operates, expand its programming, and strengthen its connection to the community, including the possibility of transitioning to a non-profit operating model. A new structure could open doors to additional grant opportunities, helping to strengthen funding and support for the Museum’s future. To guide this important work, Peterborough County is establishing a transition committee that will help shape the next chapter of Lang Pioneer Village Museum.
