  • Canada - Moose Jaw Western Development Museum
    The railway played a crucial role in opening Western Canada, delivering goods and passengers with ease. Later generations experienced the impact of the automobile and the network of roads carved from the land to accommodate it. The journey follows the daring attempts to master the sky, using aircrafts, which were often little more than canvas and wood held together with prayers and prairie ingenuity. Travel the past with us and see how our forefathers dealt with distance. Hop on board the WDM Shortline narrow gauge railway and tour the track outside the Museum. Steam and rail volunteers operate the train on weekends and holidays May 24th to Labour Day (weather permitting).

  • Luring the Future by Meeting it Halfway
    It's tricky luring children into a museum, let alone into a true, lifelong interest in museumgoing. Trudging from art object to art object can be uninspiring, even boring; it's all strictly hands off, unless -- like a growing number of science centers and museums for children -- the place is strictly hands on. But there is a movement to change the art-museum experience, preferably as soon as possible, with the goal of nurturing and growing the next generation of museum visitors.
