With over 5500 artefacts on display, the Nakusp Museum has been operating for over 42 years now. Its collection is an eclectic mix of the region's rather eclectic history, including aboriginal exhibits, local mining, forestry, farming, and hot springs history. Given that for over half of Nakusp's life the main means of transportation in the area was the paddlewheeler on the lakes, the collection includes a number of sternwheeler artefacts and exhibits.

The collection is exhibited both indoors and out and the museum operates primarily during the summer tourist season.
