The Manitoba Museum acknowledges that we are on Treaty No. 1 land, the ancestral lands of the Anishinaabeg, Ininiwak, Nêhiyawak,
and Michif. These lands, water, and waterways are the unceded territories of the Dakota, and the homeland of the Red River Métis.
The Museum is committed to reflecting the continued legacies of all of the original peoples of this province, including the Ithiniwak,
Denesułine, Anisininew, Inuit, and Nakota.
We acknowledge the harms of the past, are committed to improving relationships in the spirit of truth and reconciliation,
and appreciate the opportunity to live and learn on these traditional lands in mutual respect.
2025–2026 ANNUAL REPORT
LEADERSHIP MESSAGE
The Manitoba Museum holds stories of remarkable scale, with reverberations that extend far beyond our walls.
These stories began long before written memory, continue into the living present, and guide how we choose
to build the future. We can trace the unfolding of life on this land and the many ways people have shaped, and
been shaped by, their world and our own. Within our galleries are moments of wonder and ingenuity, but also
disruption, loss, survival, and resilience. These stories are not distant or abstract; they ask us to reflect on who
we are, how we came to be, and what responsibilities we bear for ourselves and those who will come after us.
At its core, the Museum exists to connect people, whether to
knowledge, one another, or to truths of the past that shape our
shared future. Central to this purpose is our ongoing commitment
to building respectful, reciprocal relationships with First Nations,
Inuit, and Métis communities. This work requires sustained effort,
transparency, humility, and the courage to change. We walk this
path with care and intention, understanding that truth comes
first, and reconciliation must be earned through action.
This responsibility came into sharp focus in May, when, together with
Indigenous leaders, community members, and invested parties, we
gathered in ceremony to acknowledge and apologize for decades of
wrongdoing by the Museum. We sincerely regret that since our
inception, we have held Ancestral remains in our collections. This has
always been wrong and has caused profound harm. As the Homeward
Journey moves forward, we are committed to bringing each and every
Ancestor home, with each step led by kin communities.
Facing the past honestly is essential to building a just and hopeful
future. As a museum and a public gathering place, we strive to
ensure that knowledge is never passive. Here, learning becomes
action; history becomes context; and understanding becomes
the foundation for empathy, accountability, and change.
Just as we have committed to bringing the Ancestors home,
we have been entrusted with the responsibility of confronting
the legacies embedded in the Hudson’s Bay Company (HBC)
Royal Charter. In December, the Weston family and David Thomson
acquired the HBC Royal Charter at auction, subsequently donating
it to a consortium of four public institutions, consisting of the
Archives of Manitoba, the Canadian Museum of History, the Royal
Ontario Museum, and ourselves. We are honoured to undertake the
shared work of illuminating the Charter’s impacts on First Nations,
Inuit, and Métis communities, past, present, and future.
As the province’s largest classroom, the Museum understands
that truth and reconciliation are not captured in a moment; rather,
they are the ongoing practice of listening, learning, and, often,
unlearning. Each year, hundreds of thousands of visitors engage
with our spaces, including nearly 100,000 K-12 students.
These learners bring curiosity and wonder, asking questions
that challenge us to think deeply, respond thoughtfully,
and remember that learning never truly ends.
While we celebrate the beauty of human creativity and marvel
at the wonders of nature, so too do we examine the complexities
and contradictions of how each shares space with the other.
Through immersive programs, workshops, and community‑driven
events, we spark curiosity and inspire discovery at every stage of
life. We amplify emerging voices and create platforms for artists,
researchers, and storytellers whose work deepens understanding
and expands imagination.
The Museum has stepped boldly into a period of transformation
shaped by ambition, innovation, and a firm belief in the strength of
collective action. As we prepare to walk through our renewed
Rupert Avenue entrance into our bright, refreshed foyer, we are
already dreaming of what comes next: a vibrant, forward‑looking
institution that brings people together to engage with the most
pressing issues of our time including data sovereignty, climate
change, and the stewardship of our natural world.
In a world changing at lightning speed, this work is urgent.
The path forward depends on STEM education and sustained
investments in knowledge, innovation, and discovery. Standing still
is not an option. To inspire the next generation of thinkers, leaders,
and problem‑solvers, we must continue to evolve, going beyond
textbooks to hands-on, experiential learning – where making
mistakes is part of making discoveries. Our commitment to
Manitobans is unwavering. In turn, we ask Manitoba to commit
to its Museum. Our Museum. Your Museum.
None of this happens without you. Your support strengthens our
reach, fuels growth, and allows us to imagine a bigger and better
tomorrow. Because of you, the Museum is a place where knowledge,
culture, and imagination are nurtured and shared. To everyone
supporting this journey – visitors, donors, members, partners,
collaborators, and co‑creators – thank you.
This work belongs to everyone who believes that understanding
the past gives us both the power, and the duty, to shape what
comes next.

DIGITAL CAPACITY BUILDING
STRATEGIC PRIORITIES
Engage & Share
THE FABRIC OF OUR BEING
In 2025–2026, the Manitoba Museum invested in increased digital capacity to support modernization, accessibility, and organizational
effectiveness. A new Digital Operations and Data Coordinator role was created to support the Museum’s CRM and ticketing systems,
ensure data integrity, and advance digital decision making across departments. Museum-wide cybersecurity training reinforced safe and
responsible digital use, while cross-departmental staff collaborated on the development of a staff hub to provide cloud-based access
to internal resources. Targeted professional learning was also supported through staff participation at the national Tessitura Learning
and Community Conference (pictured above), contributing to community learning and improved platform use.
As part of its priority to engage Manitobans in sharing diverse
stories, histories, and perspectives, the Museum partnered with
the Black-Manitobans Chamber of Commerce to host The Fabric of
Our Being in February 2026. Conceptualized by
Jamaican-Canadian poet, author, and arts educator Nadine
Williams, this powerful textile art installation was on display in the
Urban Corridor to coincide with Black History Month, offering
meaningful opportunities for reflection, learning, and dialogue. This
collaborative masterpiece honoured Black history while raising
awareness about the International Decade for People of African
Descent, a vital initiative by the United Nations.
2022-2027
MANITOBA MUSEUM
Strategic Priorities: 2022-2027
Evolve & Impact
SUSTAINABILITY THROUGH RENTALS
Growth in the Rentals & Events department during the year made a significant
impact in support of the Museum’s goal to increase long-term organizational
and financial sustainability. Rental revenue rose by 28 percent over the prior
year, strengthening diversified income streams that support all areas of the
Museum. This growth reflected increased community interest in using the
Museum as a gathering place. Over the year, more than 75 events were hosted
throughout Museum spaces, including weddings, corporate events, dance
parties, and cultural celebrations. The Museum also welcomed events hosted
by diverse cultural communities and new Canadians, reinforcing its role as an
inclusive provincial institution.
In the summer of 2025, the Manitoba Museum partnered with Nature Canada, in association
with the Alliance of Natural History Museums of Canada, to present Critical Distance in the
Science Gallery. Launched at the Museum during Ocean Week 2025, this augmented reality
experience had visitors engage with the realities facing the endangered Southern Resident
Killer Whales of the Salish Sea. Through guided storytelling and immersive technology,
audiences followed the lives of a family of orcas affected by underwater noise and declining
salmon stocks linked to human activity. This partnership supported shared goals of public
learning, environmental awareness, and collaboration.
This year, the Museum took concrete action on its commitment to acknowledge and respond
by reconsidering the curatorial disciplines within the research department, and by creating
a new curatorial role dedicated to Indigenous Collections. Formerly known as Anthropology,
this discipline now also includes Indigenous belongings within the HBC Museum Collection.
Designated for First Nations, Inuit, or Métis individuals, the establishment of this role
demonstrates the Museum’s commitment to supporting meaningful, ongoing relationship
building with Indigenous Nations, Knowledge Keepers, and Elders through lived experience
and cultural expertise. Joining the team in January, Morgan Brightnose is Ininiwak (Cree)
and Métis from Thompson, Manitoba, and a member of Tataskewyak Cree Nation. A PhD
candidate at the University of Manitoba, Morgan brings extensive knowledge of Treaties, land
rights, historic land use, and Indigenous activism, and is already advancing community-based
research rooted in respect, collaboration, and reciprocity.

TRIBUTE 2025
Photo by Ottawa Citizen
In 2025, the Manitoba Museum marked its
20th Annual Tribute Gala by honouring the life and legacy of
The Honourable Murray Sinclair (Mazina Giizhik). Presented by the
National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation, the evening recognized
a leader whose work has left an enduring legacy, continuing to shape
justice, reconciliation, and public understanding in Canada.
Held on April 17 in Alloway Hall, the Gala brought together supporters, partners,
and community members in the spirit of reflection and respect. Throughout his life,
Murray Sinclair dedicated himself to advancing Indigenous rights and ensuring the
truths of residential school Survivors were acknowledged and preserved. His influence
continues to guide the Manitoba Museum’s work today.
Funds raised through Tribute 2025 support the Manitoba Museum’s work, including Access
for All, which helps strengthen access, learning, and community connection for all Manitobans.
As the Tribute Gala marked 20 years of impact, the evening also became a moment of gratitude
and a chance to recognize the donors, sponsors, staff, volunteers, and partners whose
continued support makes the Museum’s work possible.

MANITOBA MUSEUM
HOMEWARD JOURNEY APOLOGY GATHERING
On May 22, 2025, the Manitoba Museum issued a formal apology to First Nations,
Inuit, and Métis communities, acknowledging that it has held Ancestral remains
and associated belongings from these communities within its collections.
The Museum held a closed
Ceremony and gathering out of
respect for the Ancestors and
kinship communities, under the
guidance of Spiritual Advisors.
Representatives witnessing this
important moment included
Grand Chief Jerry Daniels of the
Southern Chiefs’ Organization,
Elders from the Assembly of
Manitoba Chiefs, Leaders from
Inuit and Métis communities,
Chiefs of First Nations across
Manitoba, as well as
representatives from the
National Centre for Truth
and Reconciliation. They
were joined by the Manitoba
Museum Board of Governors,
the Indigenous Advisory Circle
to the Museum (IAC), and
Museum staff who help to
care for the Ancestors.
Following a Pipe Ceremony
led by ikche wichashta Kevin
Tacan – the spiritual caregiver
for the Ancestors and a member
of the IAC – CEO Dorota
Blumczyńska provided an official
apology to communities on behalf of the Museum. Leaders from
First Nations, Inuit, and Métis communities were then invited
to speak as part of this shared journey of reconciliation.
The apology represented a significant milestone in the
Manitoba Museum’s commitment to rematriation/repatriation;
the return of Ancestors and associated belongings. Former
Curator of Archaeology, Kevin Brownlee, a member of Norway
House Cree Nation (Kinosao Sipi), cared for the Ancestors for
many years and advocated for the establishment of dedicated
funding for the rematriation/repatriation of Ancestors and
belongings. In 2022, the Museum’s Board of Governors committed
to correcting this historic injustice, acknowledging that bringing
the Ancestors home was long overdue, and began the
Homeward Journey.
Homeward Journey
A small but dedicated team of Museum staff are compiling
all associated documents for the Ancestors and belongings
to prepare them for their journey home. This work involves
learning as much as possible about how the Ancestors came
into the Museum and identifying where they came from, in
order to connect with the appropriate kinship community
(or communities, in many instances) to help with their
return. This important work will take several years and
will be led by First Nations, Inuit, and Métis peoples, in
preparation for, during, and after the Ancestors’ return.
It is anticipated that dedicated community meetings
and regional roundtable discussions will begin in late
Spring 2026 and will continue until all Ancestors and
belongings are returned home.
2025–2026 ANNUAL REPORT
PIAPOT BELONGINGS REPATRIATION
The 19 belongings included ceremonial pipes,
a drum, an eagle fan, medicine pouches, as well
as gifts from Chief Piapot to the minister who
conducted his daughter’s marriage ceremony.
These came into the Museum’s care via three
separate donors, two of whom had donated to
previous collections/museums that would later
become part of the Manitoba Museum.
Dr. Amelia Fay, then Curator of Anthropology
& the HBC Museum Collection, was pleased to
work with community representatives from Piapot
First Nation, Barb Lavallee and Nadine Obey, to
coordinate this historic repatriation and ensure
guidance and protocols from Elders and Spiritual
Leaders were followed in tandem with the
Museum’s policies and procedures.
The official transfer took place at the Museum in August, with a delegation of Spiritual
Leaders, Chief Mark Fox and several Councilors, and other community members from
Piapot First Nation picking up the belongings and transporting them back home.
On September 9th, Dr. Fay attended the Treaty 4 event and homecoming of the
belongings at Piapot First Nation, alongside Dorota Blumczyńska, CEO, and
Tabitha Harper, Museum Advisor for Indigenous Relations & Reconciliation.
This past summer, the Museum completed its largest
repatriation by returning 19 belongings to Piapot First Nation
in Saskatchewan in time for their celebration of the
150th anniversary of the signing of Treaty 4.
Repatriation at the
Manitoba Museum
The Manitoba Museum’s repatriation
policy was first established in 2007,
and has been regularly updated and
revised in the years since. Informing
the policy are documents such as the
Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s
(TRC) Calls to Action and the United
Nations Declaration on the Rights of
Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP), as well
as discussions with the Indigenous
Advisory Circle to the Museum.
All requests for repatriation
are welcome; the Museum
team approaches this work as a
community-led practice, where
community values and needs
are prioritized and integrated
throughout the process.

MANITOBA MUSEUM
HBC ROYAL CHARTER
ACQUISITION
HBC Royal Charter History
The HBC Royal Charter was issued by King Charles II in 1670,
granting exclusive land, trading, and exploration rights of the
entire Hudson Bay watershed to the Governor and Company of
Adventurers Trading into Hudson Bay, later known as the Hudson’s
Bay Company, or HBC. This area represents 3.9 million square
kilometres, or roughly one-third of what is now called Canada.
King Charles II and other monarchs justified these claims through
two principles presented by Pope Alexander VI in 1493: the
doctrine of discovery and terra nullius — the belief that lands
inhabited by non-Christians, like the Americas, were ‘vacant’ or
‘unoccupied’ and free to be ‘discovered’ and claimed. Today, these
ideas and principles are rightfully being challenged and questioned.
With the Charter in place, the Hudson’s Bay Company occupied
Rupert’s Land and beyond for 200 years for their trade activities.
The success of the Company relied on the relationships they built
with First Nations and, later, with Inuit and Métis communities.
The Company had no interest in governing the local Indigenous
communities or the European settlers. Given the focus of the
Charter on trade concerns, HBC signed over the majority of
their land rights to what would become Canada for £300,000 —
a transaction that took effect in 1870.
HBC’s Decline
In early 2025, HBC made news by filing for creditor
protection, but their financial constraints proved
too great, and the Company officially dissolved and
divested its assets. This included the HBC Royal
Charter itself, as well as HBC’s corporate collection
of artifacts and artworks, news of which sparked significant
outcry from heritage professionals and Indigenous communities.
While auctions for the artifact and art collection are ongoing
as of this printing, the HBC Royal Charter itself became subject
to a number of competing bids to ensure it remained publicly
accessible in a reputable museum or archive in Canada.
Through their respective holding companies, ultimately a joint
bid by the Weston family and David Thomson was accepted,
and the four institutions were named co-stewards of this
nationally significant document. Together with the Consortium,
the Manitoba Museum is a co-custodian on behalf of all
Canadians, tasked with the responsibility of undertaking
a national conversation on its future.
Looking Ahead
As home to the nationally significant HBC Museum Collection,
the Manitoba Museum is excited to work with its Consortium
partners to share this part of the Company’s history with visitors
and engage in meaningful discussions regarding its interpretation
as part of Canada’s colonial history.
In December 2025, the Manitoba Museum
was honoured to be one of four public institutions
named part of a Consortium, also including the
Archives of Manitoba, the Canadian Museum
of History, and the Royal Ontario Museum,
to become the legal custodians of the Hudson’s
Bay Company Royal Charter.

2025–2026 ANNUAL REPORT
Anishinaabemowin with Amik is an online
language literacy game designed to support
Anishinaabe language learning, launched in
mid-2025 to hugely positive community
response, with hundreds of monthly users.
Developed over 18 months, the game features
21 animals – some of which are represented in
the Museum Galleries – creating opportunities
for real-world connection. Illustrations were
created by Anishinaabe artist Micaela Gilbert,
and audio for the game was recorded by fluent speaker
Carol Beaulieu, the Museum’s Indigenous Protocols Advisor.
The Learning & Engagement team partnered with the Exhibitions
team to integrate the game into gallery spaces through QR codes.
Since launching, the game has received over 3,000 views, with
gallery QR codes scanned more than 200 times.
A new Valentine’s Day event introduced
this year was exceptionally well-received.
Ode’imin: A Berry Sweet Paint Event
featured Anishinaabe ode’imin (strawberry)
teachings from Elder Cheryl Alexander,
strawberry-inspired painting with artist
Dawn Chartrand (with support from friend
and artist Cheryl Dreaver), a gallery tour, and a
behind-the-scenes visit with Norval Morrisseau
works as well as ancestral beadwork. The event
brought together couples, friends, and families
for an evening of creativity, music, food, and
laughter. By the end of the evening, participants
expressed gratitude for an event that celebrated the joy and love
that have always existed, and continue to exist, within Indigenous
communities, while offering a brief reprieve from the ongoing
trauma and turmoil that many continue to face.
The now annual Bead-A-Thon Fundraising Event has continued
to be a tremendous gathering, drawing nearly 300 attendees and
fostering meaningful community connections. People from across
Manitoba enjoyed a day of beading, sharing stories, and learning
from a talented group of volunteer Beading Buddies. The success
of this event would not have been possible without host Gloria
Beckman, along with Amy McPherson,
Beth Hall, Brooke Buchan, Chanwanpe
Shields, Cheyenne Schlup, Claire
Johnston, Hailey Ward, Hannah
Copenace, Lana Gaywish, Lily
Gautron, Lucy Lindell, Shannon
Kraichy, and Tammy Wolfe.
Together, the community raised
over $10,000 for the Museum.
Since its introduction to the Planetarium line-up, Wilfred Buck’s
STAR STORIES continues to be a popular show. Visitors frequently
praise its accessible format, noting how the stories invite a deeper
understanding of the stars and universe, while strengthening ties
to the land and all of creation. Many draw meaningful connections
between astrophysics and the ancestral knowledge that Wilfred
Buck shares, and some have expressed interest in seeing a stronger
emphasis on Indigenous star knowledge from nations across
Turtle Island within Museum programming.
In honour of the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, the
Museum hosted Orange Shirt Days – three days of complimentary
admission and special programming. Throughout these important
days, more than 9,000 visitors of various backgrounds and ages
walked through the doors, all with open minds and open hearts.
Special programming highlighted various permanent exhibits
connected to the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s Calls
to Action, extended content on
the history of Indian Residential
Schools, and amplified
Indigenous voices as part of
ongoing community dialogue
about Truth and Reconciliation.
CELEBRATING INDIGENOUS
CONNECTIONS
The Manitoba Museum continues to deepen its
commitment to Indigenous engagement through
programming grounded in relationship building,
cultural knowledge, and community collaboration.
Over the past year, a diverse range of initiatives
has created meaningful opportunities for visitors
to learn from Indigenous voices, celebrate
Indigenous creativity, and explore connections
between traditional knowledge and contemporary
experiences. From language revitalization tools
and hands-on cultural events to storytelling
in the Planetarium and community-centred
commemorations, these programs reflect a
growing, holistic approach to Indigenous learning
that honours lived experience, fosters dialogue,
and supports ongoing reconciliation.

Building Community — Engaging Curiosity — Finding Belonging
From April 2025 until March 2026, First Fridays at the Manitoba Museum welcomed more than 34,000 visitors, demonstrating the
transformative power of removing financial barriers to access.
Thanks to community partner Manitoba Liquor & Lotteries, this special programming takes place on the first Friday of every month, offering
complimentary evening access to the Museum Galleries, Science Gallery, and Planetarium, creating a welcoming space for families, students,
newcomers, seniors, and first-time visitors. Each month, the Museum becomes a gathering place where curiosity is sparked, stories are
shared, and connections are formed completely free of charge.
Building Community
Through community-driven programming and partnerships,
First Fridays amplify diverse voices and lived experiences.
This year, cultural celebrations tied to Asian Heritage Month
and Black History Month, as well as Indigenous-led exhibitions like
I Belong Here, ensured Manitobans could see themselves reflected
in the Museum. Collaborations with community organizations,
researchers, and cultural leaders brought dialogue, music, art,
food, and storytelling into the galleries, turning visits into
shared experiences.
Engaging Curiosity
Hands-on learning is central to every
First Friday. Visitors of all ages examined
specimens in palaeontology pop-ups,
explored university-led research through
Living Laboratory, experimented in the
Science Gallery, and experienced live
Planetarium shows that connected
Manitoba skies to the universe.
These informal, drop-in activities invite
participation without intimidation,
reaffirming that learning is for everyone.
Finding Belonging
First Fridays exemplify the Museum’s
Access for All commitment: that access
should never be limited, and everyone
should feel welcome. By removing
financial barriers and prioritizing
representation and accessibility, the
Museum encourages a sense of belonging
for thousands of visitors. Attendance
numbers reflect not only interest, but
trust that the Museum is a place where
all Manitobans belong.
Through the generous support of
Manitoba Liquor & Lotteries, First Fridays
continue to be a powerful expression of
the Museum’s mission: celebrating shared
humanity, inspiring personal discovery,
and expanding an understanding
of the universe, together.

2025–2026 ANNUAL REPORT
Thanks to the generous supporters of the Museum’s Access School
Programs fund, as well as sponsors and grant funders, barriers were
eliminated for schools across the province, allowing 3,086 students
from across Manitoba to experience the Museum’s unique
educational offerings. These funds supported program fees
and tailored learning experiences for students who might
not otherwise have had the opportunity to visit.
In addition to the 50 on-site
(28 offerts en langue française)
and 19 virtual (8 offerts en langue
française) curriculum-based
programs on offer, the Museum
hosted several special events for
school groups, including Climate/
Biodiversity Takeover Days,
World Water Day, and the newly
conceived Ultimate Field Trip.
The Ultimate Field Trip package launched in May 2025, designed
to better meet end-of-year field trip demand. Available in both
English and French, the package included an Ultimate Science
demonstration, showcasing experiments with the biggest WOW
factor, a live Ultimate Universe show in the Planetarium covering
the Universe’s greatest hits, from constellations and planets
to black holes and aliens, and Ultimate Adventure visits to the
Science and Museum Galleries to explore hands-on exhibits
and Manitoba’s natural and human histories.
In early 2026, 1,048 students
took part in three Climate/
Biodiversity Takeover Days,
an initiative geared to providing
access to climate-focused
STEM programming for
equity-deserving youth – in
particular, Indigenous youth,
racialized youth, girls, and
newcomers to Canada. The day
included a viewing of the new
Planetarium show Living
Worlds, time in the Science Gallery focusing on the Lake Winnipeg:
Shared Solutions simulator, and hands-on pop-up activities
throughout the Museum Galleries along a special Biodiversity Trail.
In partnership with Science First, the Manitoba Museum hosted
its annual World Water Day youth event, Making a Splash, in
March 2026. More than 50 grade 6-12 students and educators
from schools across Winnipeg came together for a day of learning,
with a focus on water-related challenges and opportunities,
emphasizing youth engagement and leadership.
MANITOBA’S LARGEST
CLASSROOM
Led by professional Learning & Engagement staff,
school programs go beyond the set curriculum, sparking
curiosity and nurturing a deep appreciation for Manitoba’s
cultural and natural heritage, science, and the universe.

Cat Head is a distinctive band
of rocky cliffs on the western
shore of Lake Winnipeg,
remarkable for its preservation
of soft-bodied marine organisms
from the late Ordovician Period,
about 450 million years ago. In
spite of its long history of study,
the remoteness of the site has meant limited museum collections,
and key questions remain about how and why these unique
fossils are preserved here.
To advance and share knowledge of the fossils and
ancient environmental conditions at Cat Head, the Museum’s
palaeontology team embarked on a fieldwork and relationship-
building journey in Summer 2025. The field team consisted
of Dr. Joe Moysiuk (Curator of Palaeontology and Geology),
Tabitha Harper (Museum Advisor on Indigenous Relations
and Reconciliation), Urgon Snider (Museum Mitacs Student
Associate), David Wright (volunteer), Dr. Ricardo Silva (University
of Manitoba), and Dr. Colin Sproat (University of Saskatchewan).
As part of a relationship-building process with Kinonjeoshtegon
First Nation, a community located approximately 25 km
southwest of Cat Head, the team organized sessions with
KFN Elders and leadership, leaders of KFN Jordan’s Principle,
and the broader community to explore opportunities for
reciprocal learning and engagement, including sharing Museum
specimens at the KFN Treaty Day Health Fair. Following strong
community interest and support, the field team was able to
visit Cat Head in July 2025.
During the initial trip, discoveries
included probable new species of
fossil seaweeds and sponges,
plus several first records for the
site. In addition to collecting
fossil and rock specimens and
recording data, the team also led
a day trip for members of KFN
Jordan’s Principle Youth Camp to
the field site, including about
twenty kids and their counsellors. Together, the group had the
opportunity to view fossils in place and explore the intersections
of science and traditional knowledge.
An especially spectacular find was a large fossil surface
containing numerous rare, articulated crinoids (“sea lilies”) and
other bottom-dwelling invertebrates, which had tumbled from near
the top of the cliffs during a recent rockfall. With support from KFN,
as well as Fisher River Cree Nation and McBeth Fisheries, the field
team returned in October 2025, braving the stormy autumn
weather to collect part of this surface. The team spent two days
jacketing and extracting the block for transport. With assistance
from Prairie Helicopters, the 700 lb block was lifted from the shore
to KFN, and transported by truck to the Museum, where it will be
prepared, studied, and eventually displayed.
In all, this fieldwork resulted in the collection of 100 new fossil
specimens as well as more than 50 rock samples, which are being
used to produce thin sections and for microfossil analysis. Initial
results of community engagement and scientific aspects of the
project will be presented at the upcoming Geological Association
of Canada – Mineralogical Association of Canada conference
in St. John’s, Newfoundland.

Nonsuch and Winnipeg 1920 Gallery
Video Tours
To address physical access barriers in our galleries, the Museum
developed curator-led video tours of areas that may be difficult
to navigate, including the Winnipeg 1920 Gallery and the Nonsuch.
Narrated by curators Dr. Roland Sawatzky and Dr. Amelia Fay, these
videos guide viewers through the spaces while highlighting unique
historical details.
Quiet Room
In Summer 2025, the Museum opened
a designated Quiet Room for visitors
who benefit from a calm, low-stimulus
environment. Located near the Prairies
Gallery, the room includes seating,
adjustable lighting, sensory tools, and
reading materials to support regulation
and decompression.
Aira Explorer
In December 2025, the Museum
soft-launched Aira Explorer,
an app that connects blind
and low-vision visitors with
professional visual interpreters
in real time. Using their mobile
devices, visitors receive support
with navigation, exhibit text, and
environmental descriptions to
enable a more independent visit.
Website Accessibility
As part of the audit recommendations, the Museum
completed a website accessibility review and implemented
usability improvements. A visible accessibility add-in on
manitobamuseum.ca now allows visitors to customize navigation
and display settings without affecting the site’s overall design.
Sensory Sundays
In January 2026, the Museum launched Sensory Sundays to offer a
quieter, sensory friendly gallery experience. Held on the first Sunday
of each month from 10 am to 12 pm, sound levels are reduced,
lighting is adjusted, and Quiet Rooms are available.
Staff Training
The Museum prioritized accessibility improvements for staff
through targeted learning sessions on accessibility awareness,
reasonable accommodations, and inclusive practices.
Building Accessibility
and Wayfinding Upgrades
As one of the most
impactful accessibility
enhancements, the
Museum introduced
illuminated wayfinding
arrows throughout the
galleries to support
clearer navigation
for all visitors. These
updates align with
major building
improvements, including renovations to
the Rupert Avenue entrance, scheduled
for completion in the summer.
ACCESSIBILITY IMPROVEMENTS
AT THE MUSEUM
Over the past year, the Manitoba Museum made
significant progress in accessibility, guided by
a five-year accessibility roadmap developed
by Peter Tonge Consulting and supported by
a grant from the Government of Manitoba.
“Aira levels the playing field for persons who are blind
to enjoy the Museum, especially when travelling alone.
Aira provides the assistance to allow the person with no
vision to not only navigate the Museum safely, but also
allows the visitor to focus on the [Museum exhibits]
rather than getting from point A to point B.”

The purpose of this book project
was to replace the out-of-date Flora
of Manitoba, published in 1957, with
a new resource containing updated
information. Since the 1950s,
botanists have documented the
presence of over 300 additional
species of vascular plants in Manitoba. In Volume 1,
129 of these new species are described. Volume 1 includes
all the spore-producing plants (e.g. clubmosses, ferns,
horsetails, etc.), cone-producing plants (i.e. conifers), and
flower-producing monocots (e.g. grasses, sedges, orchids,
lilies, etc.). Work on Volume 2, which will contain all the dicots
(e.g. broad-leaved woody plants, asters, roses, etc.), has
already begun, and will be published a few years from now.
It is the Museum’s hope that this new publication will make
it easier for students, professional botanists, landowners,
foresters, gardeners, and plant enthusiasts to identify
and appreciate the flora of the province.
For the overall project, years of rare plant surveys were
conducted by Dr. Diana Bizecki Robson, Curator of Botany,
on Indigenous reserves, Nature Conservancy properties,
and Crown- and privately-owned land.
Dr. Robson documented
245 new populations
of rare plants, including
several species scientists
did not know grew in
Manitoba. Along with
a team of volunteer
botanists, including
long-time volunteer
Jackie Krindle, she also
spent years intensely
studying nearly 14,000
preserved plant specimens
in the Museum’s collection. During
this research, the team discovered
that over a third of these specimens
were either newly recognized species,
incorrectly identified, or labeled
with out-of-date scientific names.
As an act of reconciliation, Elder
Shirli Ewanchuk/Black Thunderbird
graciously shared some of her
knowledge in the book’s foreword
regarding Indigenous relationships with the plant world and plant
harvesting protocols. Indigenous names for many culturally
important plant species were also included to make the book
more useful for Indigenous communities.
The official book launch was held at
the Museum on November 22, 2025.
After presentations by the authors
and a lively Q&A, participants had the
opportunity to get their book signed
by the author and enjoy refreshments
and conversation. Copies of the book
are available to purchase at the
Museum Shop, as well as through
various local and online book sellers,
including FriesenPress and
McNally Robinson.
MANITOBA FLORA
PUBLICATION & BOOK LAUNCH
In Fall 2025, the Museum published a book that
was over a decade in the making. Volume 1 of
Manitoba Flora: A Guide to the Vascular Plants
of Manitoba, describes 614 of the most abundant
vascular plant species in the province. With the
forthcoming completion of Volume 2, the Manitoba
Flora series will contain detailed descriptions,
illustrations, and identification keys for all 1,706
native and naturalized vascular plant species
known to occur in the province.
Manitoba Flora, Vol. 1
is now the essential guide
to plant identification
in the province.
