The Vancouver Police Museum & Archives Re-Opens with Enhanced Health and Safety Protocols

VANCOUVER, British Columbia - EntSun -- The Vancouver Police Museum & Archives re-opened in early June with new measures and exhibit extensions to ensure the health and safety of visitors and staff in light of COVID-19. These measures have created a fun and educational experience for visitors while ensuring their safety remains paramount during the new phases of BC's go-forward strategy. In line with these measures, they now have a Friends & Family Forensics program geared towards small "bubbles" of family and friends. The museum's popular Morgue Ghost Tours will be back in October with new safety measures in place, while Movies in the Morgue has returned with socially distanced screenings and private group bookings.

"We are proud of the safety enhancements we've made to the museum in light of COVID-19," said Museum Director, Diane Panozzo. "With a safety-first approach, we created measures that adhere to the federal, provincial and municipal health guidelines while also ensuring visitors still have an educational and interactive museum experience focused on the history of our incredible city and the development of its justice and policing initiatives. We don't take re-opening lightly and want everyone to know that we care deeply about staff and visitor health and safety."
