In June 2017, the National Gallery of Canada opened three major exhibition offerings. We anticipated that visitors would need contextual information to help make connections between these multiple exhibition offerings. To that end, an engaging and interactive learning space was designed and installed for the summer of 2017. Titled Our Stories, this space provided visitors with a framework to deepen their understanding of art. It offered enjoyable and immersive experiences, told relevant stories, and inspired curiosity about the artworks on view.
