Administrative history

The Dawson City Museum developed a walking tour in 1978 in an attempt to increase the range of their public programming. The walking tour was designed as a comprehensive tour of Dawson City's historic buildings and sites to give the visitor an overview of the town's history. Joy Brown was employed by the museum to conduct the tours. Parks Canada eventually took over walking tours around Dawson City, Yukon and the summer programmimg at the Dawson City Museum occasionally integrates street performances with these tours.
