Romance your loved one with a memorable Valentine's Brunch at the Museum's Parisian Bistro.

For this special occasion, the Bistro’s set menu includes salad, a main course and dessert.  Sit back, relax and savour your glass of champagne and Belgian chocolates while being regaled with the tantalizing tales of secret Victorian and Edwardian languages of love.  Feel free to also join in the fun and dress the part for this 1910s-20s festive, love-filled foray into food, fantasy and fashion. Cost is $40.00 per person.  Pre-registration is required.

 
Spring Break Fun - The Village Scavenger HuntMarch
16 -22 from noon to 4:00pm

Looking for some creative and fun things to do during spring break?  Well, search no more.  Burnaby Village Museum has the answer: The Village Scavenger Hunt.

In this year’s Scavenger Hunt, visitors will search high and low to investigate the “Myth-tery” Trail.  This new Trail Map sends visitors throughout the village to find and debunk all sorts of historical and cultural myths… or are they really true?!   (Search the village, and discover the truth for yourself!)  Be sure to also watch the blacksmith working, catch a movie in the theatre and tour the Interurban Tram display.  Of course, a spin on the carousel is a must. Then, stop for a snack or a treat at the old-fashioned Ice Cream Parlour.  Cost is $5.25 per person (age 2+) and includes carousel rides. Tickets are available at the door. Free for members.


Along with these special seasonal events, the Burnaby Village Museum offers on-going events, programs and workshops.  For more information, visit phone 604-293-6501.
