Members Tour
A curatorial tour of our newest exhibition RAE PERLIN: WHATEVER
I WANTED WAS OUT THERE, IN THE WORLD, SOMEWHERE with exhibition
curator Mireille Eagan.
Rae Perlin (b. St. John’s, 1910-2006) compulsively recorded her
surroundings in sketchbooks and on scraps of paper as she travelled the
world. This survey of her prolific career places Perlin’s works in conversation
with artists such as Jean-Paul Riopelle, Maurice Cullen and many others.a
This tour is available to members only.

Today's Events & Programs
Winter may be here, but there’s no need to stay home!
Join us at The Rooms to exercise and socialize during this colder and drearier time of year. While strolling throughout the building and enjoying both the exhibitions and the views, participants will focus on a different spotlight item from our collection each week. After our stroll, staff will lead a brief discussion on the weekly spotlight, and then everyone is encouraged to stay and socialize with friends new and old.
Following the Senior's Stroll, we will open our art gallery classroom for a guided art activity. All materials are provided, and everyone is welcome to attend.
No registration is needed. Included with the cost of admission ($7.80 plus HST for seniors), free for members.
