CMCC's collections are especially rich in cultural materials created by many generations of Canada's First Nations. This exhibition presents a selection of artifacts, representative of three subject areas: clothing; musical instruments; toys and games.
Timeless Treasures: The story of dolls in Canada
Canadian dolls featured in this remarkable exhibition include beautiful and rare antiques, Inuit and First Nations dolls, Eaton’s Beauties of the twentieth century, and unique creations made by modern doll artists. Discover how dolls are made and their many meanings.
The Bronfman Collection Virtual Gallery
Three exhibitions -- Masters of the Crafts, Transformation, and The Third Decade -- present the work of winners of the Bronfman Award in a variety of media, including ceramics, textile art, woodwork, glass art, and jewellery design.
Souvenirs of Canada
Souvenirs ... we all collect them when we travel to other places or into corners of our minds on voyages of self-discovery. They are often accompanied by stories that we tell everyone. Sometimes they are associated with memories that we keep private or share only with those we love. But they always reveal something about us.
