About the Exhibition

Lights of the Bay dives into the changing methods and technologies used when navigating the waters of Georgian Bay. It highlights the history of the lighthouses that light up the shoals and shores of the Parry Sound District and guide travelers to safety. 

​

This exhibition was prompted by a collaborative project with Township of the Archipelago to temporarily store artifacts from the Pointe Au Baril lighthouse while it undergoes renovations.

 

The Museum would like to thank the following organizations and individuals that have helped make this exhibition possible:

 

• Parry Sound Coast Guard Base

• The Township of the Archipelago

• Emmaline Madigan

• Sandy Barron

• Huronia Museum

• Alasdair Ehlers
