The Peachland Historical Society (PHS) will be taking over the operation of the Visitor Centre beginning in the new year.

This is because the Peachland Community Arts Council (PCAC) served notice to the district that it would not be renewing the contract to operate the centre from the Historic Schoolhouse once it expires in Feb. 2024.

Beginning in March 2024, the visitor centre will be operated out of the Peachland Museum at 5890 Beach Avenue.

害羞草研究所淚t has been through countless volunteer hours that the Peachland Museum has remained open all these years, and the PCAC has operated the visitor centre out of the Historic Schoolhouse for years and we can害羞草研究所檛 thank them enough,害羞草研究所� said Mayor Patrick Van Minsel.

The move will mean visitor centre services will be integrated into the main floor of the museum.

The Peachland Historical Society will take over visitor centre operations and all volunteers will undertake Destination BC Visitor Centre training.

As the PCAC returns to its roots as a volunteer-based organization, the art gallery will remain in the Historic Schoolhouse until council determines the most appropriate community use for the space.
