Activities at the Cumberland Heritage Village Museum in Cumberland Village are already in high gear as the museum continues to welcome visitors from far and wide.

On June 30, the museum will be holding the first of three Discovery Days, each of which will feature:

• Interactive demonstrations from the Ottawa Valley Live Steamers and Model Engineers of their large-scale model locomotives
• Community picnic activities and demonstrations on the front green, music and dancing; sports, games, and more.
• A different heritage-inspired theme to discover each month with special guest
demonstrators and activities to bring the theme to life.

The activities will run from from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Admission is $8.88 for adults, and $6.28 for children, students and seniors. Children five and under are admitted for free.

There is also a special family rate of $22.49 which is good for two adults and
their accompanying children.

The other Discovery Days will take place on Sunday, July 28 and Thursday, Aug. 29.

On Sunday, July 14 the museum will be holding it’s Vintage Vehicle Experience from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., during which visitors can explore the rapid design and mechanical advancements made during the earliest years of the automobile.

You’ll be able to chat with car owners and see partially restored, restored, and unrestored vehicles from before 1940.

There will be a display showing how Ford Model T and Model A cars transformed over the 20s and 30s and visitors will also be invited to become a Tin Can Tourist and learn about vehicle camping trends during the years between the First and Second World Wars.

Last but by no means least, you’ll be able to take a ride around the village in a vintage vehicle, weather permitting. Regular admission rates apply.

The museum has also expanded its daily activities for visitors from Wednesday to Sunday, excluding special event days.

In addition to exploring the buildings and exhibitions, taking in heritage trade and skill demonstrations (e.g., blacksmith, carpenter, leatherworking, quilting, etc.), and visiting with the heritage-breed farm animals, visitors can take part in the School Day Experience (daily from 11 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.), where they can place themselves in the shoes of a student in a rural, one-room schoolhouse and engage in activities inspired by early 20th century arithmetic, composition, geography, or nature study lessons.

Visitors can also choose to take part in the Farm Animal Tour at 3 p.m. from Wednesday to Sunday, where they will meet the many farm animals at the museum.

Beginning Wednesday, July 3 daily tractor-pulled wagon rides around the museum grounds will also be available as part of the regular admission.
