The Burlington Museums Foundation is the charitable arm of the Museums of Burlington and inspires the community to invest in heritage, culture and learning opportunities.

When you support the Burlington Museums Foundation you invest in priorities including special exhibitions, public programs and learning initiatives.

The Burlington Museums Foundation supports Burlington’s two museums, Joseph Brant Museum and Ireland House at Oakridge Farm.

Joseph Brant Museum has recently been transformed

The Joseph Brant Museum recently underwent a major reconstruction to meet national museum standards for accessibility, exhibitions, archive storage and protection. Its doors re-opened on September 19, 2019 with an added 12,000 square feet of space, expanding its educational programs and special events.

The contemporary design offers 3 permanent galleries, a dedicated space for school groups and education programs, a gallery to host travelling exhibits, a park-like setting complete with a rooftop garden, and state-of-the-art storage for artifacts.

Now, housing all the modern amenities, the destination is accessible and inclusive to all, offering more than a look behind the glass.
