The Canadian Centre for the Great War provides hands-on workshops, using objects and archives from its extensive heritage collection, for students in grades 9 to 11.
During a 30-minute learning activity students will:
Aligned with
History of the 20th Century Program – Competency 1 and 2
of the Quebec Education Program.
Themes include:
“Life in the Trenches”
“Army Censorship”
“Propaganda and Fake News”
and “Documenting the World War”.
We also facilitate custom workshops.
The museum of the future will not be based in a building with the expectation that the public will visit; it will go out into its community, engaging patrons in their own environments and bringing culture back into the public sphere. We see the Centre as a facilitator of spaces, bringing its collections to non-traditional venues and staging pop-ups across Canada. The Centre places the First World War firmly in the realm of public life.
