In our upcoming exhibit, “Summer on the Lake” we’ll be displaying a selection of artefacts from our collection that symbolize some of Orillia’s most famous features, the lakes. From fishing at the Narrows to rowing races, from waterskiing to swimming to dancing at the Pav, Orillians have been enjoying their time at the lake for hundreds of years. We’re going to celebrate those favourite summertime experiences in our exhibit, coming this summer. 
In this exhibition, OMAH and our local history community attempt to tell a complete history of Orillia through 50 artefacts from the museum collection. Each object represents an event, person or location that influenced our city. Come learn the story of Orillia through a whole new lens. OTHER EXHIBITIONS
