Annual Book Fair
Event Date: TBD Fall 2023
For more than 25 years, we have held a book sale in the museum gallery. Browse through our selection of gently used books to find bargains on your fall and winter reading material.
We will also have a selection of previously loved jigsaw puzzles and china tea cups in our museum shop.
We gratefully accept lightly used books, puzzles, and games year round! We’re especially interested in bestseller books. We regret that we are no longer able to accept encyclopedias, textbooks or magazines. If you would like to donate books, puzzles or games for the Book Fair, please contact Vanya at: 604-541-2222 or events@whiterockmuseum.ca
This fundraiser supports our exhibits, archival & artifact collections, and our community programs & events.
Christmas Craft Market

Celebrate the magic of the season, and see our gallery transform into a holiday market. With more than 20 local artisans, you are sure to find something for everyone on your list. Open six days per week!
