The Peterborough Museum & Archives will be hosting their annual Pop-Up Shop on Thursday, December 1st from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. at Peterborough & the Kawarthas Tourism, located at 270 George Street N. The Museum’s gift shop is a curated collection of apparel, home décor, children’s toys, stuffies, and keepsakes.
