Walking Tour Visits, Meet-Ups, & Space Rentals

Walking Tour Visits

Making the Post Office & Museum one of the stops on your walking tour through Old Town?

Please contact info@tos1stpo.com when bringing a group of 5 people or more on a walking tour to the Museum to provide notice of the date and time of arrival. This allows additional support to be provided to our Staff, if needed, so we can accommodate larger groups and keep the Post Office running smoothly. 

Group Meet-Ups  

Organizing a group meet-up and wish to use our Reading Room space?

Please contact info@tos1stpo.com to secure a date and time if your meet-up group contains 5 people or more . Due to the size of our space, we ask that meet-ups of this size remain at the Museum for no more than one hour. This is to ensure that other visitors wishing to experience the Museum have the chance to do so. If your group wishes to use the space for longer than one hour, please refer to our space rental pricing below. Failure to contact us may result in your group not being able to use the space if another pre-scheduled event, program, or rental is taking place.  

Space Rentals

Need space for your book launch, staff meeting, crafting party, lecture, meet-up, or get-together?

Our main rental space is our Reading Room, but rentals include use of the Post Office, the Exhibit Room, a small kitchen and washroom.
