Check Out What's Happening
The Pump Room
The museum’s most incredible artifact is the building itself – where the original pumps remain in place and visitors can discover exactly how they worked. During indoor museum tours, skilled guides demonstrate how steam power was an essential element of the industrial development of Canada and how pumped water played a key role in Kingston’s history.
The Exhibition Hall
The PumpHouse Exhibition Hall is currently vacant as we prepare our next exciting exhibition, exploring the world of archaeology and opening in March 2027! In the meantime, there’s still plenty of fun to discover throughout the rest of the museum. Come visit, explore, and keep your eyes peeled for upcoming programming—we can’t wait to share what’s next!
