Sarah Wray Heritage Hall Restoration Project

The PHLHS's mission is to restore the building to its former glory and maintain it for use as a community hall. Read more about the project... |
Women of Pender Harbour Book

Other Community Projects |
We are presently working on heritage panels for the harbour. Photos and historical information about various sites will showcase Pender Harbour history to our community and to our many visitors. The first panels are planned for the Madeira Park waterfront and Sarah Wray Hall (at one time the old Irvines Landing School). Look for these panels around the harbour by summer 2013.
