Our Mission is to Collect, preserve and present our artifacts and stories for everyone.
The Pioneer Museum is preserving tens of thousands of objects for future generations and showing how rural life was for the people who built our communities. We keep alive our cultural heritage through demonstrations, field exhibits, displays, and hands on activities.
OUR VISION:
Our vision is to be an enriching place to explore and enjoy the pioneering past of Stony Plain and Parkland County.
WHAT WE DO:
The Pioneer Museum collects items of historical interest from Parkland County and presents the stories of these items to visitors from the local area and from many countries around the globe. Most of the Museum work, such as machinery restoration, building restoration and maintenance, archiving artifacts, guiding tours and hosting events is done by a large group of volunteers.
OUR COMMUNITY:
We are situated on the northwestern edge of the town of Stony Plain on 14 acres of land. Stony Plain lies around 30 minutes west of the city of Edmonton and is a town of around 18,000 people with an emphasis on art and culture. The Pioneer Museum partners with other organizations for some of the major events in the town like: Farmers' Days, Canada Day, The Blueberry Bluegrass Festival and the Stony Plain Cowboy Gathering.
