About Museum London

At the forks of the Deshkan Ziibi / Thames River, Museum London is situated in a place that has been a site of convergence, exchange, and interconnection for thousands of years. Today, in the heart of Southwestern Ontario, Museum London’s purpose is to honour and amplify interconnections by activating art and history. Through this work, we create deeper understandings of our past, our communities, our place in the world, and the breadth of possibilities that our shared future holds.

Grounded in our region and its rich cultural, artistic, and historical legacies, we co-create, reflect, and interpret ideas and stories rooted here, share them widely, and bring important artistic knowledge from other places to London to benefit local audiences.

Through exhibitions, our vast collections of art and artifacts, public and school programs for learners of all ages, and memorable special events, we nurture curiosity, creativity, and empathy, build community and shape a more vibrant city.
