Feed your curiosity for free Sept 28 & 29
It’s that time of year again! Celebrate Alberta Culture Days with us and enjoy a FREE visit to the museum from September 28 -29!
See millions of years of natural and cultural history, get up close and personal with live insects, and play all day in the Children's Gallery. And if you’ve been waiting to check out Angkor: The Lost Empire of Cambodia, now’s your chance.
Plus, we have some special guests joining us on Saturday, September 28! Stop by our Community Fair to meet some great community organizations or drop into the Roundhouse to learn about conservation work by our friends at the Northern Forestry Centre.
