Description
Literary Luminaries welcomes some of Nanaimo's most notable authors during an event to celebrate Heritage Week event. With so many notable authors in Nanaimo it was difficult to figure out who to invite. For the first year of this event the museum staff chose to invite authors that have a connection or relationship with the museum. We look forward to inviting more authors in the future when the event is a success.
Authors will be on hand to read and sign their books.

Description
Nanaimo's history was been given new life with the construction of our facility in the Vancouver Island Conference Centre. Where the physical constraint of our previous site - which served us well for 40 years - was hampering our ability to grow and expand, the new site allows us the opportunity to reach our full potential as a modern day museum, research facility and tourist attraction.
The Nanaimo Museum is the guardian of the Bastion, a former Hudson’s Bay Company outpost that was built in 1853. The museum provides a site interpreter to share the fascinating stories of the lives of early settlers and the significance of the Bastion to Nanaimo
