Our Morinville: Week in Photos

Musée Morinville Museum Attendant Donna Garrett shows the Morinville Centennial Quilt, which was given to the community in 2011 during Morinville’s 100th anniversary as a town. Volunteers worked for several months on its 40 different blocks, each depicting various aspects of Morinville’s history. The Town initially displayed the quilt at the Morinville Community Cultural Centre before it was given a home at the museum.  – Stephen Dafoe Photo
