Youth Ventures Success Story!

Step inside a one-of-a-kind youth-run museum that’s bringing Newfoundland history to life! What started as a simple collection of sea glass has grown into a fascinating display of vintage items, old bottles, and artifacts from everyday life in years past.

Located in a repurposed fishing shed, the museum has become both a tourism attraction and a gathering place for locals to share stories, memories, and knowledge that might otherwise be lost.

Visitors can explore by donation, making history accessible to everyone. Many of the items on display have been generously donated by community members who wanted their treasures preserved and shared.

This young entrepreneur’s passion for storytelling and preserving the past ensures that the traditions, tools, and tales of our community will be remembered for generations to come. 🐚⚓

Never underestimate the power of the sea. The waves damaged the bottom of the garage door and tore through the museum 😔 a lot of cleanup and some repairs but thankfully not a lot of collectibles were broken. Imagine the force to move that cast iron stove!
