Lebret Museum features an array of art, photos, antiques, household items and other artifacts pertaining to the people who settled in the village, including First Nations, Metis, farming communities, settlers and the clergy. Current displays feature Metis beadwork, Louis Riel’s sugar bowl, and local legionnaire’s and veterans.
Take advantage of a new photo exhibition showcasing the “Metis Families of the Road Allowance”.
Local Notes:
The Lebret Museum was scheduled to open on May 15, 2026. However, as we have yet to complete our opening preparations, the opening will be delayed until at least June 19, 2026.
The installation representing Metis Road Allowance families has been taken down and over 500 photos from the archive have been digitized by Film Rescue, Indian Head. The Indigenous room was given a fresh coat of paint, with support from Prairie Co-op, and new displays are being setup in the room. Hundreds of volunteer hours have been put in to bring us to this point.
The settler room has been reorganized, moving many items into storage, resulting in a more organized display.
On Sunday June 14, 2026, we will be hosting a volunteer orientation starting at 3:30. We would welcome all volunteers including the “volunteer curious” to join us for a sneak peak and discussion on the revamped space.
The museum will be counting on our volunteers to keep the door open during the summer season. The hours are 11am to 3pm Friday, Saturday, Sunday each weekend and will close on the September long weekend. Private tours during off hours can be arranged by request. Admission is by donation and donations over $50 can be given a tax receipt upon request.
