The Government of Saskatchewan announced that museums, which are part of the Re-Open Saskatchewan Plan Phase 4.2 can begin to open on June 29, 2020.
However, after careful consideration, the Western Development Museum (WDM) has made the decision to remain closed at its locations in Yorkton, as well as Moose Jaw, North Battleford, and Saskatoon.
Joan Kanigan, WDM CEO said, "The safety of our visitors, volunteers and staff is our primary concern. As difficult as this is, the WDM must remain closed until we are confident that all the requirements outlined in the Libraries, Museums, Art Galleries Guidelines along with all other applicable provincial regulations are being met to the highest standard."
More information about when the WDM will re-open will be on our website at as it becomes available. The WDM looks forward to welcoming everyone back into our Museum locations when all safety protocols are in place.
