| Description | Since 1971, Markham Museum has offered a unique family and educational experience, on 25 acres of parkland, featuring over 20 historic buildings and a new LEED Gold standard Collections Building. Representing the main themes of settlement, as it relates to the environment, and the technologies used to adapt to life, the Museum’s many quality programs focus on the ongoing growth of our community.
