What to expect: Learn printmaking techniques and create unique keepsakes. Create up to 12 Valentine’s Day cards.

Participants will visit TEKWEYWINEN TEL WELJESULTIEK (Be With Us in Our Joy), an interactive play-based experience that showcases the works of seven Indigenous artists based in Wabanaki, inviting everyone to explore their (and your) individual interpretations of inner joy.

All workshop materials are included in the cost. This workshop may get messy – appropriate clothing is recommended.

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.

Tour

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.
