The Muséoparc Vanier Museopark is a non-profit, community museum named for its location in the Richelieu Park. The Museopark’s mandate is threefold:
* to showcase the natural beauty of the Richelieu Park and protect its heritage forest;
* to highlight and protect Vanier’s cultural heritage;
* to showcase the heritage and history of Vanier’s Francophones and, by extension, of all its cultural components, Francophones of Ottawa and all of Ontario’s French-speaking community. It is the only francophone museum in Ottawa of one of the rare Canadian museums outside of Quebec dedicated to the French-speaking community.
