Peterborough Museum and Archives set to reopen in July

After a long break due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Peterborough Museum and Archives will open its doors to the public on July 6.

However, there will be some changes.

In a news release, the museum says it will only be reopening on a by-appointment basis to support physical distancing.

In addition, the museum has temporarily removed interactive activities from the exhibits. Cleaning protocols have also been put in place, and hand sanitizer will be made available for both visitors and staff.
