Grey Roots Museum & Archives is reopening to the public.
As of Wednesday, September 16th the museum will open along with Moreston Heritage Village, Grey Roots’ seasonal ten acre living history site which will stay open until Thanksgiving weekend to allow the public more time to enjoy the outdoor space and fall weather.
The exhibit Facing the Flames: The History of Firefighting in Grey County has also been extended through the fall.
In a statement, Grey Roots Manager Jill Paterson says she’s excited to welcome back visitors, “It’s great that we are able to make use of our outdoor space into the fall. We have made some changes to our visitor experience, but we have lots of opportunities for people to have fun while exploring the exhibits and the village.”
Along with other non-essential County buildings, Grey Roots closed its doors to the public in March following regional and provincial health guidelines to limit the spread of COVID-19.
The Museum says all visitors (including members) are required to book a time slot for their visit in advance.
COVID-19 safety protocols are in place. You can read about them on Grey Roots’ website.
