Museum in the Streets

Coming soon!

The Museum in the Streets™: Lake Street project will create three bilingual heritage-discovery walks for the benefit of Lake Street communities and visitors from far and wide. These free walking tours will foster a sense of historical identity; educate; encourage preservation of local historic sites; and promote the knowledge of the stories, events, and traditions of Lake Street. They will also affirm our urban renewal projects and be a structure for school outings. Each walkabout of 15-20 locations will include large maps highlighting that area’s locations and will clarify where the visitor is in relation to other area destinations.

This project will include a brochure that outlines the walking tours. The series of panels that makes up each tour will invite people to discover Lake Street’s unique story at their own pace, over the course of an afternoon or perhaps return visits.

This is a unique opportunity for residents, businesses, and everyone who touched and was touched by Lake Street to participate and build relationships that Lake Street
Council hopes will grow beyond the work to create Museum in the Streets: Lake
Street.
