Meet The Cultural Manager Angela Bobier
Where are you from?
" West Lorne, but I grew up in Wallacetown."
How long have you been a member?
" 10 years."
Why do you love the Museum?
" Being the keeper of the area's history, especially inside the preserved 1850's house is a great privilege. Our setting in the park makes this a peaceful, beautiful place to work and visit."
Do you have a favourite room or artifact?
"Well, the pantry is my favourite room because I like kitchen gadgets. My favourite artifact are the archival documents, I love to pull history from primary sources and add those into our tours."
Why should people volunteer here?
"We have fun at the Backus-Page House Museum. We find tasks that suit your interests and are willing to teach you how to do Museum duties."
1 Fun fact about you!
"I graduated in 2018 with my Diploma in Cultural Resource Management."
Favourite memory or memories from the Museum?
"Getting a call from the MP, Joe Preston congratulating me on my first grant approval, shortly after becoming Cultural manager. Or anytime I can help someone research local history or their own genealogy is fun for me."
Thank you for reading, tune in next Monday!
