Take a look at the history of Campbellton as seen through the lens of local photographer Godfrey Baldwin. Baldwin set up his photographic studio in his Campbellton home in 1948, and through his work at the local newspaper, and as one of the only professional photographers in town at that time, documented the community life and many changes taking place during the 1950s.
Museum at Campbell River respectfully acknowledges the Liǧʷiɫdax̌ʷ First Nation, on whose traditional lands we work to preserve, interpret and share the collective human history of North Vancouver Island. The Liǧʷiɫdax̌ʷ First Nation is comprised of the We Wai Kai, Wei Wai Kum and Kwiakah First Nations. Our closest neighbors are the Coast Salish Xwemalhkwu, Klahoose and K’ómoks First Nations.
These nations have close connections to the land where Campbell River is located today.
