Museums preserve more than objects — they preserve stories, relationships, knowledge, and heritage.

Water carries all of these. It shapes our communities, holds memory in place, and connects past, present, and future across the landscapes we call home.

This International Museum Day, we’re reflecting on water as part of our shared heritage in Canada — something we live alongside, learn from, and are responsible for. 🌊

Explore the venue where the Faelight Ball comes to life! ✨

Set along the shoreline of Discovery Harbour, this historic harbour stands as a living example of how water has shaped the very foundations of our current societies. 🌊

Once a vital naval base and trading point, its waters carried stories, connection, and commerce—threads that built the world around us. On May 16, it will transform into the perfect backdrop for an evening where history, water, and fantasy intertwine.

Beneath lantern light and beside the same waters that have long guided human movement and meaning, The Faelight Ball invites you to step into a night where history deepens the atmosphere, and imagination takes the lead. ✨

Water has always lived in myth—a shifting force of creation, transformation, memory, and mystery. From ancient rivers believed to hold spirits, to sirens echoing across the deep, water has long been a boundary between worlds.

We at the Canadian Museum of Water are excited to meet the Fae Water Child and all other mythically inspired creatures at ’s Faelight Ball.

We love seeing water inspire the next generation 💧🎨

We had a blast teaming up with Quest to welcome their PA Day campers to the Canadian Museum of Water. From hands-on experiments to our “The Water They Want” colouring project, their creativity and curiosity made quite the splash!

Take a look at how Quest captured the day below 👇

(And stay tuned… we’ll be sharing their incredible artwork in our next post! ✨)
