Maple Ridge Museum & Archives

At the Maple Ridge Museum we only get to display 1% of our collection at a time! Our "From the Collection" posts are a way to highlight some of our objects that would typically go unseen! This post shows one of our many cameras the Kodak Duaflex IV from the 1950s!

Our first Music on the Wharf concert is next week, July 13! ‘Gift Shop – Tribute to The Tragically Hip’ has captivated audiences with their faithful recreation of The Hip’s signature guitar tones, vocal harmonies, and high-energy live performances. Their attention to detail and ability to pack dance floors have made them a fan favourite for those who cherish The Tragically Hip’s iconic music. mapleridgemuseum.org/events/music-on-the-wharf

Last chance to sign up for Headstone Preservation at Maple Ridge Cemetery on July 9 and at Whonnock Cemetery on July 11!

The Maple Ridge Cemetery and Whonnock Cemetery have graves dating back over one hundred years. Many of the people buried there are early settlers of our community and do not have anyone left to care for their resting place. Join us to take part in this important, unique, and memorable project. mapleridgemuseum.org/headstone-preservation-project
