This is one of the best museums for learning about indigenous people in North America. It is amazing that a town the size of Campbell River would have such an outstanding collection of artifacts. Some were on loan from Royal British Columbia Museum in Victoria. My only complaint is that it was very dark- low lighting which made it difficult for one of the people in our party who is visually impaired. We spent close to 3 hours here. So much to read and learn.

I have now become a member of the museum. The staff are wonderful, helpful, friendly and I have been getting some of my Christmas gifts at the gift shop. I am currently taking a writing course there and it is top notch and challenging. I had no idea how professional it would be. EXCEPTIONAL

Very interesting, informative, and beautiful exhibits. Admission price isn't expensive and well worth what you do pay. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Highly recommended.

They built this place hoping the cruise ships would dock here, alas those guys never got the memo, there were 8 people visiting in the 2 hours I was here. Interesting collection of native American artifacts, and a selection of films to watch in a small theatre. If you are interested in learning about the history of the area this is a must see. I had no idea they used massive explosives to blast an island to clear a navigation choke point. Watch the ripple rock video, it's a BLAST, literally. Sad to know Canadians used .50 Calibre Browning Machine Guns to kill orca "whales" (dolphins really) once upon a time. Equally sad is how racial minorities were treated here in the early 20th and 19th century. The "iron chink" exhibit and the WW2 Japanese internment exhibit shows stark contrast with today's vibrant multiracial population of BC. How wealthy would First Nations tribes be if they owned the leases to all the buildings in Vancouver. Great exhibit on how they "lost it all".
