The Morrin Centre possesses a collection of over 800 artifacts that are important to the history of Quebec City\u2019s English-speaking community. The collection, which has grown over the years thanks to donations to the Literary and Historical Society of Quebec from local individuals and families, includes the following: paintings, furniture, natural history artifacts, toys, photographs, memorabilia, and decorative objects, including fine china. These objects reflect not only the history of the Society, but also the activities of individuals from the community and their contributions both locally and nationally.<\/span><\/span>
<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

In 2023-2024, the Morrin Centre improved the storage conditions for the artifacts in our collection. This project was made possible by the Government of Canada.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Continued work on the collection is made possible thanks to support from Young Canada Works and Young Canada Works in Both Official Languages.<\/p>\n
