Special Event
We are delighted to partner with Wonderbolt and St. John’s International Circus Fest to bring you A Night at the Circus.
The Rooms will be filled with aerialists, acrobats, contortionists and clowns in a sweeping evening of Contemporary Circus Celebration.
Guests will be guided throughout the building to encounter performances by members of the 7Fingers (Montreal), iFly Aerial Arts (St. John’s), Cirque Alfonse (Montreal) and graduating students of the National Circus School.
Please join us for this spectacular event curated by Artistic Director, Anahareo Dölle and Artistic Coordinator/Programming Assistant, Carole Demers, directed by Olaf Tribel and hosted by Anthony Venisse.
$73 per person, tax included. Members discount does not apply for this event. This event is for guests age 16 and older. Cash bar available.
To celebrate International Archaeology Day, please join renowned flint knapping expert Tim Rast as he demonstrates how to create tools from stone. Learn how much skill is required to work with materials like stone, bone, and antlers.
Tim is responsible for many of the stone and wood tool replicas used around our province in museums and educational displays.
This is a drop-in program. No ticket is required.
Have you ever wondered how museums, textbooks, or papers get those detailed drawings of specimens to look so realistic? Don’t worry, it’s not as hard as you think!
In this workshop, we will be exploring the art and science of scientific illustration—measured drawings that are created to preserve an artifact and highlight features of its surface. It’s an excellent way to learn a new skill and examine a specimen in a new way!
Cost: $40 plus HST. 10% discount for Rooms members.
All materials included! Register online or call (709) 757-8090.
