Reopening of the Winnipeg Art Gallery and Qaumajuq

The WAG is closed to the public until March 27 when Qaumajuq officially opens! We’ve got special hours for the opening week and advanced registration is required with a free timed ticket.

Qaumajuq is an innovative new museum, home of the largest public collection of contemporary Inuit art in the world. This first-of-its-kind centre connects to the WAG on all levels, creating a 185,000-square-foot cultural campus in the heart of downtown Winnipeg.

Qaumajuq will bridge Canada’s North and South through exhibitions, research, education, and art making. A community of artists, Indigenous advisors, partners, and stakeholders have collaborated to envision and build a vibrant gathering place where all are welcome and where everyone’s stories are told and heard in a true spirit of reconciliation.

Virtual Exhibition at the MAC - Leonard Cohen

The exhibition is divided into four major themes ubiquitous in Cohen's work: Poetic Thought, Spirituality & Humility, Love and Loss & Desire. Each visitor decides on their own route and can access the rich documentation by exploring the exhibition either through one of these themes (in the Explore section) or by works and artists (in the Gallery section). These two sections offer visitors an alternative entry point to the monumental and sometimes unprecedented content of the exhibition: hundreds of images, audio and video clips, quotes, and biographies of artists, as well as songs, interviews, poems. and self-portraits by Cohen.
