Seniors

We are proud to be deemed an Age-Friendly Organization, as recognized by the County of Simcoe. We are currently working towards creating virtual and hybrid programming for seniors in senior’s active living facilities, utilizing the Seniors Community Grant Program offered through the Government of Ontario, and the Ministry for Seniors and Accessibility.

Land Acknowledgement

The Orillia Museum of Art & History is located on the traditional territory of the Anishnaabeg. The Anishinaabeg include the Ojibwe, Odawa, and Pottawatomi nations, collectively known as the Three Fires Confederacy. We respect and observe the long and enduring presence of Indigenous Peoples – First Nations, Métis and Inuit – on this land. Their teachings and stewardship, culture and way of life have shaped our City’s unique identity.

In acknowledging that we occupy colonized Indigenous territories, and out of respect for the rights of Indigenous people, we accept our collective responsibility to recognize our colonial histories as well as their present-day manifestations in order to honour, protect, and sustain this land.
