This museum is worth a visit. Lots of historical facts and artifacts of the Okanagan and of course Penticton. There is also a section of hands on learning for the kids.
As interesting as it was to see the displays of the the antiques of the settler's, perhaps it would be more appropriate to include even more information and storytelling about the first people's territory this museum is privelaged to be on. Some truth about the genocide and colonization might help.to remind people about what really happened to the sylix, and other bands in the Okanogan.
Also I have to mention the live rattlesnake held captive. Honestly it is EXTREMELY cruel, and unnecessary! There are many other ways to teach about this native species. This is an old and barbaric practice.
Please do better!
