Langford has added three car-share vehicles to the community in a partnership with car co-op Modo. Two electric vehicles and one hybrid will now be available for use by the public in Langford . . .
“Langford offered the museum land and municipal staff support in the effort to provide the museum with a permanent home. Langford’s innovative and bold approach to this development is greatly appreciated,” said museum president Jamie Webb in a statement. “The museum believes in Langford’s bold vision to develop a cultural complex that includes a performing arts centre and strongly supports them in this initiative.”
The museum has been leasing a small, temporary space in downtown Victoria since it was forced to leave its home in Bastion Square in 2015. It currently operates from 3,000 square feet at 634 Humboldt St., meaning most of its 35,000-artifact collection is in climate-controlled storage supplied by the province.
