Mission & vision

​Mission:
Fostering our relationship with our partners, stakeholders and the community we will:
  • preserve and protect the Ross home and its contents;
  • educate the public about the House and the influence the Ross family had on the development of Winnipeg and Manitoba;
  • continue to research the site, its context and its current neighbourhood;
  • acquire and display artifacts up to 1907.

Vision:
Ross House Museum will strive to be recognized as an integral and unique part of Winnipeg's heritage as a primary example of a mid-19th Century Scottish/Metis home in the Red River Settlement.
