George and Charlotte Gibson Day is the Sunshine Coast Museum and Archives annual event commemorating the arrival of the Gibson family to West Howe Sound in 1886.
This year is the 126th anniversary. To celebrate this historic occasion, the museum is hosting an open house on Saturday from 2 to 4 p.m. with cake and refreshments, live music, and a slide show on the history of Gibsons. You will have a chance to meet some of the living descendants of the Gibsons and other pioneer families, as well as the museum’s board of directors. Come on out to this all-ages event, support your museum, and learn more about our local history.
