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.
Deck the Halls with Handmade Cheer!
Get into the festive spirit with a cozy, creative evening project! Perfect for beginners and crafty folks of all skill levels, this small project is a wonderful way to spend time with friends or family—including teens—while making something special for your home.
What to Expect:
- Craft a colourful seasonal wreath using traditional techniques such as braiding fabrics, yarn wrapping, and needle felting
- Visit the holiday décor and trees throughout the building
- Sip on a coffee or hot chocolate while you craft
- Leave with a unique holiday wreath and warm memories of a joyful evening together
Cost: $40 plus HST. 10% discount for Rooms members. Register online or by calling (709) 757-8090. Limited seats available.
