Chatham-Kent Community Hub - Museum Exhibition and Interpretive Plan
What We Are Working On
Interpreting the stories of Chatham-Kent, its people, its communities, its landscape, and its geography to develop exhibitions for the Chatham-Kent Museum located within the Chatham-Kent Community Hub.
Who We Are Working With
We are working with ElsonStudio, Bespoke Collective, and Meld Media consultants to gather stories, assess the artifacts within the current Chatham-Kent Museum collection, and develop a Museum Exhibition and Interpretive Plan.
How You Can Provide Input
This is your chance to help shape not just what stories the new museum tells about Chatham-Kent, but the kind of experience it offers.
To start with, we would like you to take our survey and share what matters most to you — the stories, places, and history you'd want the next generation to remember, and the kind of museum you'd want to visit. The survey takes about 10-15 minutes and is open August 5-17, 2026.

Chatham-Kent is building a new museum as part of the Chatham-Kent Community Hub and we want to ensure it reflects the diverse people, communities, and stories that make up all of Chatham-Kent. This survey asks about your background, the kind of experience you'd want the museum to offer, and the stories and objects that matter most to you and your community.
The survey should take about 12-15 minutes to complete.
Your answers are confidential and will be summarized alongside everyone else's to help shape the museum's themes and design - no individual responses will be shared or attributed. Every question marked "optional" can be skipped.
Personal information contained on this survey is collected by The Municipality of Chatham-Kent under the authority of the Municipal Act, 2001 and will be used by Community Culture and Connections staff for the purpose of contacting you if you indicated you wish to receive further information on this project. Questions regarding the collection and use of this information may be directed to the Municipal Clerk, 315 King Street West, Chatham, ON N7M 5K8, or by telephone at 519.360.1998 or email to ckclerk@chatham-kent.ca.
