“[The Museum] is an amazing space, and it’s neat seeing how it keeps being refashioned and reconfigured.” — Matt Galloway, CBC Metro Morning
Light up the dark months and warm up the cold days with a visit to our new interactive installations!
Listening to Art, Seeing Music brings together the Museum’s stunning Collection and stellar performances for a multi-sensory journey of discovery. Experience the interconnectedness of all of the arts as music and painting, digital art and spoken word, dance and poetry, and even food unite to create a museum visit like no other.
From soundscapes and hands-on interactive displays to the contemplative space of an authentic Mongolian yurt, nearly a dozen installations invite you to explore the Museum on a journey of discovery.
Watch shapes blossom from sounds in Sama Mara’s interactive installation A Hidden Order. Marvel at the craftsmanship in a display of instruments handmade by Syrian oud player Radwan Al Taleb. Contemplate the mesmerizing animations of Shahzia Sikander and the meditative score of Pulitzer Prize-winning composer Du Yun united in Disruption as Rapture. And, on select days, make your own music as you engage with instruments in the Museum’s public spaces.
