Exhibit "Viva Canada Featuring Joan Larson"

July 28, 2026 11:00 AM – 3:00 PM

VIVA Canada Exhibition features the work of pastel artist, Joan Larson, who has created a series of artwork depicting her train journey across Canada. These artworks will be imbedded in a life-size VIA train image, which will stretch around the walls of the Concert Gallery. A realistic set featuring a ticket window, historic posters of train travel across the country, luggage racks, and local train memorabilia will invite the summer visitors to 'experience' a journey across Canada in situ. Playback Theatre group will also be presenting a series of innovative and participatory sketches of travellers and their connections, and a fun, interactive scavenger hunt for young visitors will feature geographic and historical learning pods making this exhibition a true community event.

Visit the MAC this summer Tuesday through Sunday from 11am to 3pm.
