There’s lots to BOOOOOO – we mean DO at The Rooms!

Have a blast and get into the ghoulish spirit of Halloween with some of our spook-takular activities! Make some creepy-crawlies, spider webs, ghosts or masks at our self-guided craft stations.

There are friendly ghosts at The Rooms – how many can you find? Go on a ghost walk to see if you can count them all (some clues will be provided at the craft station). Enter your answer for a chance to win a prize!

Visit the theatre and check out a selection of short animations playing on a loop from the National Film Board collection. Each story teaches us about resilience and strength – even during scary Halloween Times! Total time is approximately 40 minutes

  • From Far Away, by Shira Avni & Serene El-haj Daoud (2000) 6 mins

Today's Events & Programs

1:30 pm - 2:30 pm

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.

No registration is needed. Included with the cost of admission ($7.80 plus HST for seniors), free for members.
