Important Tour Scheduling Information

To accommodate the high demand for this service, each class or organization is limited to one guided tour per year. If you would like to visit us again, send us an email at ask@pgpl.ca, or ask your tour leader for more details!

You will receive an email from a library staff member to confirm your date and time within 2 business days. Please do not schedule transportation or make any other arrangements until you have received this confirmation.

Please complete one form per class/organization. Due to spatial and staffing limitations, we can only host one class/group of up to 30 people at one time. If you would like to bring two classes/groups on the same day and the total number of people exceeds 30, you may select "Yes" to "Would you like to book a double tour with Two Rivers Gallery?". Our staff will contact Two Rivers and determine which dates are available for double tours. In a double tour, one class/group visits the library while the other visits Two Rivers, then they switch locations. This typically results in a 3-hour field trip. Lunch space may be provided at the library, upon request. There is no cost for library tours; there may be costs for visits to the Two Rivers Gallery.
