A piece of Roberts Creek history will be unveiled to the public this Saturday (March 7) at the Sunshine Coast Museum and Archives during a special exhibit from 2 to 4 p.m. at the museum located at 716 Winn Rd. in Gibsons.
The Roberts Creek Hist-ory Project came about through the hard work of co-ordinators Serena Eades and Darcy Davis Case, along with many people from the community who contributed their photos, stories and artifacts. Funding for the project was provided through a grant from the Sunshine Coast Regional District to the Roberts Creek Community Association. The exhibit uses text and images to tell the story of a unique community and how it has changed from the early 1900s to the present day. Topics explored in the exhibit are centred around work, politics, food and housing. These topics are universal, timeless and at the heart of "community." You don't have to be a Creeker to enjoy this. For those of you who missed the open house at the Roberts Creek Hall last November, or who just want to see it again, the museum will have the exhibit up until it can be moved to its permanent location in the Roberts Creek library sometime this summer.
