Overview

The Marine Museum is one of Manitoba's most unique experiential museums.  Our flagship the S.S. Keenora has a rich history on Lake Winnipeg which includes many people travelled Lake Winnipeg on this ship. As a community led, non-profit charity, the Museum depends on admissions revenue and fundraising to maintain the ships and to offer our programming. 

As part of our fundraising, we are offering a unique dining experience; a traditional S.S. Keenora Dinner served on the decks of the ship.  A unique experience you won't want to miss!
