Family Fun

Feeling festive?  Join us to create your very own mummer ornament.  In fact, make two – one to take home, and one to place on a special Mummer Tree at The Rooms.

Children who come in mummer rigs (dressed as a mummer) are invited to participate in a mini-mummer parade throughout the public spaces of the building.

This event is presented in partnership with the 2022 Mummers Festival.

The Mummer ornament tree will be on display over the holidays.

Suitable for all ages. This is included in the cost of admission.

Indigenous Rising, the first roller derby team to represent multiple Nations at the Roller Derby World Cup, unites players across continents to claim space in the sport they love.

Rising Through the Fray follows this groundbreaking team as new generations join, determined to change the face of roller derby—an inclusive, female-empowering sport still lacking diversity.

With candid intimacy, filmmaker Courtney Montour blends energetic gameplay and tender daily moments as skaters from 30+ Nations find strength in each other. Through portraits of Sour Cherry, Krispy, and Hawaiian Blaze, the film reveals displacement, reconnection, resilience, and belonging beyond the track.
