<p class="MsoNormal">Hello Friends!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The Tumbler Ridge Museum finds itself picking up where we left off around this time last year. Unfortunately, our early season wildfire evacuation resulted in putting a few projects on the backburner as timelines became impossible to maintain
with onboarding summer staff and heading into peak season immediately upon our return.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As such, we are reopening our call for project proposals. We have secured funds to get this exhibition off the ground with the goal of applying to Digital Museums Canada later this year to complete the work. The successful agency will be
working with us and the Tumbler Ridge UNESCO Global Geopark to showcase the palaeontology, geology, biodiversity, and anthropology of Northeast BC.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Please see attached for details.<o:p></o:p></p>
