Fire hydrants turned into historical figures. For example, one is painted as a hairdresser for the first female barber in Quesnel when the local barber left to serve his country during the war. There is a carpenter, paperboy, and a hockey player. Maps are available.
Listen to the stories of Chinese and First Nations Elders or visit a Sikh temple through interactive video installations. Meet the residents of early twentieth-century Quesnel through the remarkable photographs. Dress up in the children's activity centre or participate in a scavenger hunt. Favourite exhibits include the Titanic, Footprints in Stone, dedicated to local First Nations culture, and vignettes recreating Quesnel's pioneer homes and businesses.
