Fix your gaze on these mystical birds of prey!

See Iroquois beadworks, both historical and contemporary, and learn how this art still flourishes.

Iroquois beadworkers play a vital role in preserving cultural beliefs. The Iroquois were quick to adapt European-made cloth and glass beads to their own artistic traditions developed over many centuries. Such adaptation allowed them to pursue their conceptual and aesthetic goals, while retaining the same imagery that they have always used, representing their cosmology, values and legends.

Classics never die.

In the dead of winter or the heat of summer, outside or inside, Canadian children have always worked hard to have fun!

This exhibition takes a look at our favourite games and toys over the past 130 years. Despite the 20th century’s astonishing developments in science, medicine and technology, some things have remained constant. Children still play with dolls and farm sets. Skating, tobogganing and playing hockey remain an integral part of Canadian winters.
