[The MHV's]...participation in ‘A Virtual Collection of Mennonite Clocks’ will help make our clocks more accessible. Unless we have researchers using our collection for a project, public access to our collection is usually limited to exhibits...once this website goes live, anyone...will be able to learn everything we know about our clocks, helping us to fulfill MHV’s mission “To preserve and exhibit, for present and future generations, the experience and story of the Russian Mennonites and their contributions to Manitoba”.

The Manitoba Museum is pleased to have four of our important artifacts featured on 'The Virtual Collection of Mennonite Clocks.' This platform has allowed us to make part of our collection more accessible to the public in a specific, contextualized manner that highlights the history and personal stories so vital to Mennonite culture.
