The Museum of Anthropology (MOA) at UBC reopens its doors to the public on June 13, 2024 at 5pm, following an 18-month closure that saw the successful completion of cutting-edge seismic upgrades to its Great Hall, coupled with updated interpretations and new displays of Northwest Coast Indigenous art. As part of the reopening, MOA will present two new exhibitions sharing Indigenous perspectives on colonial history: To Be Seen, To Be Heard: First Nations in Public Spaces, 1900–1965 and in Pursuit of Venus [infected] by famed Māori artist Lisa Reihana. MOA’s reopening weekend will include a host of special events and activities, including dance and musical performances, hands-on workshops, staff tours and family-friendly activities. MOA’s reopening this summer coincides with the 75th anniversary of the Museum’s opening to the public. For further reopening details and exhibition information, visit: moa.ubc.ca
