The Museum is one of the many places you can visit to learn more about — and be unsettled by — the history and impact of residential schools in Canada.
We recommend you visit the residential schools section of the Canadian History Hall and learn more through the histories, voices and artworks presented in the Grand Hall and the First Peoples Hall.
