11:00am - 5:00pm
Explore the 185,000-square-foot cultural campus that is WAG-Qaumajuq, including the stunning Visible Vault showcasing thousands of carvings and much more.
As September 8 coincides with the final day of the Jean Paul Riopelle retrospective show, we will be celebrating by creating hockey card colour collages referencing the artwork by contemporary artist Marc-Antoine K. Phaneuf, who is featured in the exhibit. Phaneuf’s piece is a tribute to Jean Paul Riopelle, who was a fervent hockey fan. Throughout the day, visitors of all ages can take part in this art-making activity in the Skylight Gallery and use pieces of vintage hockey cards to create their own version of a hockey card collage artwork.
We’ll also have two drop-in tours that afternoon. At 1pm, enjoy a deep dive of Lita Fontaine: Winyan, then at 2pm, join us for the final tour of Riopelle: Crossroads in Time!
