The Timmins Museum: National Exhibition Centre, located at 325 Second Avenue, reopened for business in September 2011.

The new museum includes two temporary galleries that host a variety of travelling exhibitions from across Canada, an archives and a gift shop.

Educational programs are available for grades one to twelve and are delivered in both English and French. We also offer a variety of workshops for adults and children dealing with arts and heritage themes.

The museum archival collection includes over 20,000 images of the Porcupine camp, dating from 1908. You can look through the photographs in our library, or, if you prefer, you can browse through our extensive archives of mining publications. Researchers are welcomed to submit their questions and arrange for study time with the collection.

Finally, a trip to the museum would not be complete without a visit to our Museum Gift Shop. Local handmade crafts and items from around the world are available year round. Our children’s corner offers a variety of educational (but fun!) toys and games.

The Timmins Museum: National Exhibition Centre is opened year round, six days a week and offers free admission. Come visit your museum!
