Neil Young:

The Youngtown Museum is named in tribute to one of Canada's most outstanding Singers , Songwriters, and Musicians ... Neil Young.  Neil spent his early childhood in the village of Omemee and the Young Family history continued in the area through Neil's father (Canadian Journalist and Author) Scott Young who lived near town until his passing in 2005. The museum is not directly affiliated with Neil Young or his family but pays respects to the artist and his family through an amazing exhibit of memorabilia, photo's, and music.

Come see the Beatles Exhibit

One of the biggest musical acts in history, The Beatles were John Lennon (guitar), George Harrison (guitar), Paul McCartney (bass) and Ringo Starr (drums). Lennon and McCartney began playing together in The Quarrymen in 1957; Harrison joined later that year. Before they became The Beatles, they were also Johnny and the Moondogs and The Silver Beatles, joined at times by band mates including bassist Stuart Sutcliffe (23 June 1940 - 10 April 1962) and drummer Pete Best (b. 24 November 1941); Best was replaced by Ringo to form the final foursome.
