The Camrose Museum will be making the change from winter to summer hours of operation starting today. The museum will now be accommodating guests every Wednesday to Sunday from 10 am to 5 pm (closed Monday and Tuesday). Helping launch the coming season at the popular museum, until closing time today, is a presentation on the traditions of Norway. Enjoy folk art demonstrations, krumkake-making demonstration, rosemaling, wood crafting, entertainment and spinning. See the colorful apparel and enjoy ice cream courtesy of Oleo’s Ice Cream Castle. The Camrose Museum staff is working on scheduling a host of activities over the summer which help keep the memories of the past alive. Creative and compelling attractions and activities, especially with children and groups, are in the planning stage. There will always be something for locals and visitors to the City of Camrose happening at the Museum.
