In addition, The Exploration Place has announced its new five-year plan leading up to the 60th anniversary of the museum. The plan is centered around the organization’s new mission “to provide a local lens on our evolving world by fostering discovery and engagement.”

The five pillars of the plan are:

• Improving communications and relationships with the community by engaging with feedback from visitors and amplifying their presence.
• Truth and Reconciliation by maintaining and building their relationship with Lheidli T’enneh and other First Nations as well as increasing Indigenous programming through courses and cultural exhibits.
• Recruiting and retaining more staff by providing on-the-job training and ensuring employees have competitive development and benefits.
• Creating diverse programming & revenue generation by ensuring continued programming for adults and expanding science-related programming for kids and youth.
• Improving curatorial & facility access by making the facilities more environmentally friendly, incorporate more kid-friendly instillation, and expand kids’ programming.
