Description:
Callander Bay Heritage Museum & Alex Dufresne Gallery celebrate Callander’s rich cultural heritage and host several art exhibitions every year, all in the house and practice of the former doctor to the Dionne Quintuplets, Dr Allan Roy Dafoe. Our eight-rooms feature items related to the sisters and Dr. Dafoe’s medical practice, and explore the town’s shipping and logging history. Also included in the collection are hockey jerseys belonging to Philadelphia Flyer’s Bill Barber and a turn-of-the-century barber shop. The adjacent Alex Dufresne Gallery shares the same entrance as the museum, and hosts several exhibitions every year featuring local artists.
