Tales of Fantasy Exhibit
Legends and myths captured from Canadian and Indigenous heritage
This special exhibit from the Sherbrooke Museum of Nature and Science is sure to leave your imagination soaring.
“Once Upon A Time” was the first means of literacy for people. Oral legends created from one teller to another, they travel and evolve as time goes by. Over the past few years, storytellers, authors and musicians have contributed to the revival of oral traditions. They are bringing back to life a whole spectrum of our cultural heritage. This now allows these forgotten legends and myths of our nations to come back to life and be recognized.
