THE DOUGLAS FAMILY ART CENTRE

THE LAKE OF THE WOODS MUSEUM

LOCATION

The Muse is located on Main Street South in Kenora, Ontario, Canada. Kenora is located in Northwestern Ontario and is the last major community in Ontario before entering Manitoba. The city, nestled on the north shore of beautiful Lake of the Woods, is easily accessible by highway. In fact, the Trans Canada Highway runs right through the middle of town, heading 200 km west to Winnipeg, and 500 km east to Thunder Bay. The Canada-United States border is about a 2.5 hour drive to the south.

You’ll find The Muse at the south end of Main Street South in Kenora. The Museum and Art Centre which comprise The Muse are two separate buildings on either side of Memorial Park, where Kenora’s cenotaph is located.
