We invite you to visit! Echoes of the past mingle in a modern-day hustle and bustle at the White Rock Museum + Archives Gift Shop housed within the train station built in 1912. Nestled by the promenade along a stunning seascape and a railroad where trains occasionally whistle by, the Gift Shop presents a homey atmosphere packed with affordable treasures. The changing exhibits in the Museum & Archives and the quality of the wares in its gift shop entice locals and travelers from all over the world year round.
Friendly staff and volunteers welcome browsers who enjoy exploring the merchandise, which includes original art, jewellery and crafts by talented local artists. In addition, historic photographs, handmade greeting cards, soft toys, ceramics, glassware and our own "Years of Promise" book provide all-occasion gift giving opportunities. Free information from such popular pamphlets as "The Legend of the White Rock" creates family fun and clears up the mystery of the celebrated rock that gives White Rock its name and stands invincibly on the shore.
