Being Present: The Architecture of The Rooms
The Rooms is a space where architecture and history meet, inspired by traditional fishing rooms that once brought communities together. Its design reflects the province’s stories—anchored in place, open to change—with each wing symbolically facing land, people, and sea.
Natural materials and bold colors evoke Newfoundland and Labrador’s landscape and spirit. Light, reflection, and shifting perspectives make the building feel alive, adapting with time and weather. This is more than a building—it’s a gathering place for memory, creativity, and connection.
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.
Join the students of the Suzuki Talent Education Program (STEP) for their back-to-school play-in! Enjoy a selection of Baroque and Classical songs from the students’ shared repertoire on the violin, viola and cello, along with Newfoundland and Irish fiddle tunes that will be sure to inspire a new appreciation for music.
This is a free, drop-in performance.
About STEP:
The Suzuki Talent Education Program offers a complete string music education for children (ages 0-18) in violin, viola, and cello. Based in St. John’s, Newfoundland & Labrador, STEP has been the foundation of string playing in our community for over four decades and is the province's only Suzuki music education program.
