⁠
Visit our galleries now to see the 48th installment of this exhibition! It closes September 30th and unfortunately cannot be extended. ⁠

Last chance to register for our virtual tour happening tonight!⁠
⁠
The Woodland Cultural Centre presents a screening of the ⁠
Mohawk Institute Residential School on September 20 at 6:00pm. ⁠
⁠
Your donation will help support our education department to create and deliver virtual programming at the Woodland Cultural Centre. We want to continue to deliver the highest quality programs centered on a Hodinohsho:ni worldview, celebrating, and sharing Indigenous cultures, languages, and art.⁠
⁠
The virtual tour video was created with local production company Thru the Reddoor, and it follows the guide, Lorrie Gallant, as she gives a tour of the former Mohawk Institute Residential School. ⁠
⁠
During the video, Lorrie provides the history of the institution over its 140-year history. Viewers will get to see the different rooms in the school, from the girls’ and boys’ dormitories, to the cafeteria, laundry room, and other rooms throughout the building, as well as hear interviews from five Survivors of the Mohawk Institute.⁠
