After careful consideration, the Western Development Museum (WDM) has made the decision to remain closed at its locations in Moose Jaw, North Battleford, Saskatoon and Yorkton, despite having the option of re-opening when Phase 4.2 of the Re-Open Saskatchewan Plan begins on June 29.

“The safety of our visitors, volunteers and staff is our primary concern,” said Joan Kanigan, WDM CEO. 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 their website at wdm.ca as it becomes available. The WDM looks forward to welcoming everyone back into their museum locations when all safety protocols are in place.
