Your contribution to Float the Boat will directly fund initiatives such as opening our exhibits seven days a week, enhancing our programming at this year’s Classic Boat Festival, launching two new community-focused exhibits, touring Dorothy, the newly restored heritage sailing vessel in our collection, and introducing new weekend programming and behind-the-scenes collections tours to make our collections and the history preserved here more accessible for all,” said Vis, “Together, we can ensure that the Maritime Museum of BC continues to flourish and that we can serve our community even better in the coming year.”
