Hal Hillgren Manager / Educational Archives & Heritage Centre
Visitors are welcome at the Hill Park Learning Centre on East 16th Street on Hamilton’s Central Mountain.
While the building is shared with other organizations, the Archives occupies several rooms and is frequently updating displays of artifacts and materials of interest to everyone, especially those who attend (or taught in) a school in Hamilton-Wentworth area.
Interested people may want to access information from our extensive files of documents, which continue to be catalogued and cross-referenced. Photographs are sorted by schools and catalogued extensively; many educators in the pictures are identified and indexed in our growing computer database. School registers are organized by school, and data about teachers, dates and school locations are clearly detailed in accompanying binders.
Hours of Operation
We are currently still in the process of migrating our collection from our old location at the former Vincent Massey Elementary School to our new space in the Hill Park Learning Centre, and as such are currently open only by appointment. Please contact us by phone or email for answers to any further questions.
