The Heritage Centre has been open, weather permitting, from 10: AM to 4: PM Thursdays to Sundays starting May 21, 2022 and through the Labour Day weekend of 2022.  The summer season is now over and our assistant, Zoe has left for school. We will be closed, except possibly some weekend hours when the weather is good, and we can get a volunteer host. See you next year!

Group tours may be available by contacting us in advance.

The Saturna Heritage Centre at the Fog Alarm Building needs you! We have had a successful summer with the FAB open on the weekends and some weekdays. We will be looking for volunteers to host at the FAB and welcome guests into the Saturna Heritage Centre next year! The shifts are short (2-4 hours) and flexible! This is a great opportunity to learn more about the FAB and Saturna History and get involved in the community. RSVP to saturnaheritagecentre@gmail.com if you are interested! We also have ongoing heritage projects. Are you interested in Saturna history, especially First Nations’ presence for millenia? Contact us to become involved. Visit the Timeline on our site for a taste.

Please note that the Heritage Centre at the FAB no longer has a phone line.  The listings in the Saturna phone book are no longer useful.  Sorry for any inconvenience. You can still reach us by email or on our Facebook, Instagram and other media.
