This exhibit tells the stories of the impact of World War I on the individual lives of diverse Ontarians. It brings the war to life by sharing a love story, told through letters between a soldier and his sweetheart; the heartwarming correspondence between a frontline surgeon and the patients whose lives he saved; and the memories of a veteran who returns to the battlefields 20 years later.
Celebrate Ontario's athletic heritage with stories from leading moments and personalities in the province’s sports history. This exhibit highlights the contributions of individual athletes and the communities that supported and promoted sports and fitness for all Ontarians.
Whether living on a farm, enjoying a farmer’s market, or tasting delicious foods, Ontarians take great pride in their agricultural heritage. This exhibit examines how farming in Ontario has transformed the land and created communities, and how food reaches our tables.
Exhibits can be borrowed from one to three months. However, longer or shorter loan periods will be considered depending on the needs of the host institution or event.
All the exhibits are produced on three to five easy to erect pop-up banner panels, that are approximately 60 cm by 2 m (2 ft. by 7 ft.) in size each.
