Betty Stonehouse became involved in working with the Tinsmith Museum as she listened to many of the interesting stories that are always being told in the Museum.  She has taken the active role of Manager for the Museum and supervises the Students.

I love DIY projects and crafts. After moving to Shubenacadie and having family involved with the Tinsmith Museum and Gift Shop I thought it would be a nice fit for my crafts and a new hobby.
It has become so much more! What I thought would be a pass time, and a way to showcase my crafts has grown into friendships, a desire to help my community and personal growth.
Learning about the community you live in and the history behind it gives you a sense of belonging. Helping to showcase this gives you a sense of pride.
 

Becoming involved with the Shubenacadie Tinsmith Museum and Gift Shop first as a crafter, and now as a board member I am contributing to keeping our history alive for future generations.
