The Qualicum Beach Museum chronicles the
history of Qualicum with a fascinating collection of objects displayed
in period settings. The Museum also features a grand mural by
local artists depicting the early days of Qualicum. The mural
covers three walls of the second floor galleries. In addition the
Museum maintains an extensive archive of local historical documents and
photographs.
Another feature of the Museum is that it
houses one of the finest collections of fossils in Western Canada.
Consisting primarily of fossils found in British Columbia, the
collection was assembled and is currently curated by the internationally
known fossil collector Graham Beard, in conjunction with the Vancouver
Island Paleontology Museum Society.
