OVCMHOF ARTIFACTS & MEMORABILIA

One of mandates of the Ottawa Valley Country Music Hall of Fame is to establish a permanent Museum for the storage, preservation, and public display of musical instruments and other artifacts and memorabilia pertaining to the composition, performance, recording, and transmission of country music in the Ottawa Valley and elsewhere in Canada.

The Hall of Fame has been blessed to be the recipients of many Ottawa Valley Musical artifacts and collectables. We have displayed many of these items at various shows across the Valley such as the Ottawa Exhibition, but with the advent of Internet and through our website, we'd like to share some of these with everyone..
