Are you blind to the importance of bats?

The Courtenay and District Museum is pleased to present the travelling exhibition BATS: Out of the Darkness from the Kelowna Museums Society.

This exhibit serves as a chance to bring the bats of British Columbia ‘out of the darkness’ and celebrate their precious role in our ecosystem.

Explore the family-friendly displays covering bat ecology, biology, habitat needs, syilx/Okanagan Nation perspectives, conservation issues, personal stories/case studies and fun facts.

The exhibit was created through collaboration between a wide variety of Kelowna community partners, from scientists and environmental educators to chiropterologists (bat experts) and representatives of the syilx/Okanagan Nation.

School classes are welcome to visit this exhibit. Please arrange a time by contacting the museum at 250-334-0686 ext 2, or by emailing us. Provide the grade level and number of people in the group. The visit is included with your general admission fee.
