Advocates not optimistic for future of New Brunswick Museum
Located in Saint John, N.B., the New Brunswick Museum has remained shuttered over the past two years, first due to COVID-19 protocols, but then because of a need for facility repairs.
“Finding a new home in Saint John for the New Brunswick Museum is an important step in having a location that will securely preserve and showcase our province’s natural and cultural history,” said Mark Taylor. “We are getting closer to making announcements about the museum’s future location. Once details have been finalized with the long-term revitalization plan, we look forward to proudly sharing it.”The minister responsible, Tammy Scott-Wallace, was not made available for an interview.
The Hardman Group Ltd., which operates Market Square, said despite efforts to keep the facility, the writing has long been on the walls for a potential move.
