Museum Tour
Curator-Led Tours of Winners & Losers Exhibition
NOTICE: This event has passed.
Join our curators Adam Bunch and Morgan Campbell as they lead you through the exhibit and provide insight on the stories and their curatorial process.
Ride the highs and the lows of Toronto’s sports histories in our latest exhibition, Winners & Losers. We are a city of record breakers, rebel rousers, and game changers. Sports have shaped our city for generations — from infamous bat flips and buzzer-beating three-pointers, to Stanley Cup curses and fairweather fandoms. Whether they bring us together or reflect our divisions, the sports we play tell us a story.
This unique curator-led tour is your chance to go behind-the-scenes with the curators and see our city’s vibrant stories brought to life!
