The Department of Education, Culture and Employment is happy to note that Phase 1 of the Emerging Wisely plan includes being able to open museums and galleries. The Prince of Wales Northern Heritage Centre is currently developing a plan for reopening that will ensure the health and safety of staff and patrons, and will not be opening until this plan is in place and approved by the Office of the Chief Health Officer. We will provide updates as more information becomes available.

Le ministère de l’Éducation, de la Culture et de la Formation est heureux de constater que la phase 1 du plan Une reprise avisée prévoit la possibilité d’ouvrir les musées et les galeries.
