Winter may be here, but there’s no need to stay home! Join us at The Rooms to exercise and socialize during this colder and drearier time of year.

While strolling throughout the building and enjoying both the exhibits and the views, participants may focus on a different theme from our collection each week. After our stroll, staff will lead a brief discussion on the weekly theme, and then everyone is encouraged to stay and socialize with friends new and old.

No registration is needed. Included with the cost of admission ($7.80 plus HST for seniors), free for members.
