As the snow flies, we’re looking back at a busy spring and summer — and saying a big THANK YOU to our collaborators, supporters, staff, volunteers, and visitors! ❤️ Here are just a few shots from the season.

Today we commemorate National Day for Truth & Reconciliation. We remember and honour the children who never returned home, the survivors, their families, and their communities.

We continue to reflect on and acknowledge this atrocious past, and act against ongoing racism, prejudice, and the structures that uphold injustice. We commit our energy and intention to meaningful change - to support, uplift, and stand in solidarity.

Profoundly disappointed by the recent theft of an embossed Gold Run postal stamp and vandalism in one of our galleries.

Our community’s material heritage is not your souvenir. Given the hate symbol found beneath the damaged artifact, we also want to reaffirm that racism, bigotry, or any hateful act/speech will not be tolerated.
