The next General Meeting of the Cloyne and District Historical Society will be the launch of the Bloomberg Connects app. Throughout the spring and summer months, CDHS members have been researching, writing and narrating descriptions of key exhibits in the Pioneer Museum.  Text descriptions and audio files have been uploaded to the Bloomberg Connects app to create a unique audio-visual guide to the museum.  QR codes will be placed on the exhibits, and visitors can scan the code to open complete exhibit information, including the audio files.

Bloomberg Connects is a free app for Android and iOS mobile devices. It gives you instant access to not only the Pioneer Museum 24/7 but also over 500 of the best museums, galleries, and gardens in the world, including the Guggenheim in New York and the Anne Frank House in Amsterdam. The Cloyne Pioneer Museum is only the third museum in Canada to join the group (and is likely the smallest, too!).

Join us at the Barrie Community Hall in Cloyne for a demonstration of Bloomberg Connects. The meeting starts at 1 p.m., and light refreshments will be served. Everyone is welcome!
