Now centrally located in the heart of Annapolis Royal. Located in the Ol'Newman's building, this lovely majestic building from 1922 is now home to Canada's premier antiques & art gallery. Don't miss the secluded garden which features stone and metal garden statuary, and of course an authentic Tiki Bar.

We visited Far-Fetched Antigues a few days after after hurrican Dorian hit Annapolis Royal and it was the first day of opening after the storm. A beautiful collection of antigues and collectables , especially from the Far East is ready for browsing. All very well arranged by owner Cindy, temporarely assisted by her sister Susan from Toronto. Absolutely a "must' visit in Annapolis Royal.

This museum houses a lot of our towns rare artifacts. I was very impressed with so many articles. One has to go upstairs to see all of them. As my grandmother Hickey worked here, I was very interested in the old pictures, however, I did not see her in any of them. I was also acting as Sir Charles Tupper on one occasion and his hope was on Victoria St. in Amherst.

This delightful Art Gallery is part of Acadia University, and houses a permanent collection that is periodically exhibited and also there are special exhibits. There is a yearly showing of community works, and also a host of special events (including book releases, openings of exhibits etc).I It is no-cost, and well worth a visit - just check the hours of operation before you go.

I love the art this month. I stop by regularly to see what’s new. It’s always changing. It’s such a nice addition to the downtown.

This is a remarkable site. One can feel the presence of the Order of Good Cheer and almost envisage the sailing ships anchored in the Annapolis Basin. Champlain lives here.

All that glitters is gold at the Anne Murray Centre. The Centre is a tribute to the legendary singer’s amazing career. Rows of gold and platinum albums, and glittering trophies of all shapes and sizes fill every inch of the room. It’s breathtaking even to those who’ve been in the room before, but for those who haven’t, it’s like walking into a fantasy – a spectacular visual you’ll remember long after you’ve left the Centre!

Before Celine...before Shania.....before kd......there was the Snowbird herself - Anne Murray! About 28 years ago, the Anne Murray Centre opened in Springhill, NS and is a wonderful way to revisit Anne's life and music. The museum (although Anne reputedly isn't keen on calling it that, still being very much alive) offers a chronological view of her life from her birth in Springhill through to her retirement, covering her professional, her personal and pubic achievements. It's all there - the music, the gold (and platinum) records and her other awards including her Order of Canada and Order of Nova Scotia. The gift shop on the premises offers not only memorabilia relating to Anne but also items created by craftsmen and women and artisans in Nova Scotia and particularly from the local region. In addition to this, the Centre also supports local musicians with their Music at Noon sessions on Fridays during the summer months. The staff are fun, friendly and enthusiastic - a great group of people. And for those who are able to be there - Anne Murray Day takes place on the last Saturday of July each year, with Anne herself appearing for a meet and greet with her fans.

Temporarily closed for the season. We will re-open from April 23, 2019 to October 31, 2019. Looking forward to finding fossils with you in the Spring of 2019!

Make sure to time your trip to Joggins around low tide- this way you will get to see as much of the beach as possible. The museum and information center are lovely and worth the admission fee. The exhibits explain the history of the area (ancient and more recent), really framing the importance of the sight before you go down to the beach. After reading about the area, walk down the cliffs (could be difficult if mobility is a concern) and just walk along the beach and marvel at the fossils. If you look closely you realize they are everywhere! A great day for both kids and adults. Could easily spend about 3 hours there total with museum, but less depending on interest. The information center offers guided tours of the beach based on low tide (included with price of general admission) and there is a cafe inside the center as well. We went on a rainy day and it was still a splendid experience. Highly recommend!
