About

Learn & Explore Lessons are exciting monthly special events that take place in the Signy and Cléophée Eaton Theatre at ROM. Learn from engaging Museum Educators and Indigenous Museum Educators, as well as incredible special guests, about specific topics with Museum connections.

Use this Gallery Trail to help your students record key learning points from their Learn & Explore lesson, and to make connections to objects in the galleries at ROM during self-guided times outside of the Eaton Theatre.

Students can work on their own or in small groups to complete some or all of the activities. You can download this Gallery Trail guide as a .pdf, or use the Google Drive link to remix your own version of this activity.

Museum Guidelines

Walk. Do not run.

Don't touch objects. Only touch objects that are clearly marked as safe to touch.

Use indoor voices.

Share the galleries with respect. Make way for Museum Educators if they need a space for a lesson.

Don’t rush. Focus your time on the objects that capture your interest and complete what you can within the time you have.

Ask questions and have fun!

Fast Facts

If you hear a quiet rumble when you’re in the Eaton Theatre, it’s not thunder – it’s a TTC subway train headed into or away from Museum Station.

ROM was founded in 1914.
