Events & Programs
Fishing for Cod
For centuries, fishing for cod has played a vital role in the lives of the peoples of Newfoundland and Labrador. Generations of fishing men, women, and children made use of the land and sea to sustain them and spent their lives “making fish.”
Join us each day for an interpretive guided tour in one of our galleries. From the story of the cod fishery to visiting a current art exhibition to a Family Rainbow Tour, there is something for everyone.
Each tour is approximately 30–40 minutes and is included in the cost of admission. Free for Rooms members.
The 2025 Mummers Festival features a tradition from Christmas' long past.
Actors, folklorists, dancers, musicians, and community members join forces on "The Spirit of Mummering", a collective project to present the traditional Newfoundland Mummers Play.
Come for the play, learn some traditional Newfoundland dances and enjoy music by local musicians. Join us as we explore a whole other side of Newfoundland Mummering!
This is a free program but a ticket is required. Reserve your seat online or call 709-757-8090.
This program is presented in partnership with the 2025 Mummers Festival. For more information about festival events, visit www.mummersfestival.ca.
