On Wednesday, September 30, MANL’s offices are closed in observance of Truth and Reconciliation Day to honour Residential School Survivors, their families and communities, and the children who never returned home.

We encourage all to look up and attend commemorative events happening in your community, and to consider how your organization can activate the Canadian Museum Association’s “Moved to Action Standards” and contribute to meaningful reconciliation.
