Yesterday was #WorldEnvironmentDay, and being that, coupled with our coffee morning for #VolunteersWeek2025 and Museums week #TogethernessMW, we thought it a perfect opportunity to hang our newly completed quilt up in the museum.
Painted mural of the early Ice Age, 1.5 million years ago. Image depicts a spring steppe tundra environment filled with grasses, forbs, and sedges. There are many Beringian animals (steppe mammoths, running hyenas, horses, caribou, muskox, arctic ground squirrels, ravens, and elk).
Painted mural of the last interglacial period, 125,000 years ago. Image depicts a lush, moist environment filled with trees and bushes. There is a large stream through the center of the mural. There are many Beringian animals (camels, steppe bison, ravens, wolves, Jefferson's ground sloth, peccaries, giant beaves, and mastodon).
Painted mural of the last glacial period, 20,000 years ago. Image depicts a spring steppe tundra environment filled with flowers, grasses, forbs, and sedges. There are many Beringian animals (woolly mammoths, horses, black-footed ferrets, a caribou, a lynx, a giant short-faced bear, a scimitar cat, and a wolverine).
Change has always been part of life in Beringia. Glaciers advanced and retreated, landscapes shifted, and life adapted. That deep history reminds us: we’re not separate from nature, we’re shaped by it.

Let's come together for the fourth day’s topic of #MuseumWeek, which is #TogethernessMW.
Happy #WorldEnvironmentDay!

Day 4 of #MuseumWeek2025. Today’s theme is Togetherness. It was so great to see so many people at our Shark Night tonight at Bolton Museum, part of #FestivalofLibraries. A real joy to share the shark collections! 🦈 #TogethernessMW
#MuseumsWeek today is #TogethernessMW & over 8 decades, volunteers have made Strathnaver Museum what it is today.
In the 1950s our founder's vision was to create a museum for the area. Their successors build on this & today Strathnaver Museum is an important attraction.

A photo of a child pointing at an art installation made up of a web of red threads with fabric blood bags attached.
A photo of a web of blood red threads casting shadows against a deep brown wall. On the threads there are fabric blood bags which also cast black shadows. The network of threads is part of a larger work named Vessel by Gemma Wood. The bags were sewn by community participants in the Korea Leukemia Patients Organization in Seoul and Bukkyo University in Kyoto as part of artist Leigh Bowser's Blood Bag Project.
A photo of a fabric blood bag depicting a red heart surrounded by hands reaching from all around to touch it. The hands are all different colours, from natural skin tones to a Hello Kitty image. It was made by a recovered leukaemia patient from South Korea.
Our Blood exhibition celebrates the connection and community that comes through shared blood and the act of giving blood. Blood donation and transfusion brings people together, both strangers who will never meet and families already bonded by blood.

There’s a unique kind of magic in this place. To journey alongside people whose hearts beat with the same intention, creating & exploring within these museum walls (under the Nova Scotian sky) it’s a privilege. We’re weaving something beautiful, together. ❤

A northern flying squirrel specimen laid out on a white background. The squirrel’s fur is in shades of orange, brown, and cream. The skin is posed with the specimen’s limbs held in an X shape, similar to how the squirrel would hold its limbs to stretch out its skin for gliding in life.
Between sprawling concrete and speeding cars, a city can be a hostile place for wildlife. In Winnipeg we share our city with an elusive small mammal you may not know is here… the northern flying squirrel! They're nocturnal and spend most of their time looking for food in the trees. #TogethernessMW
#TogethernessMW underpins our unique relationship with the Zulu nation. This unlikely friendship, forged after the Anglo-Zulu War 1879, now sees the people of Brecon and KwaZulu Natal working together. Here Zulu dancers entertain during our Zulu Festival in 2024.#MuseumWeek #humanity #sharedhistory
Head Gardener Jane, a white woman dressed in an orange t-shirt and blue shirt with short hair, positions a potted plant among a range of fresh plants and dried herbs on a table in a tent.
A group of children and parents look on at a table filled with potted herbs as a gardener talks to them.
Two women paint plants with an instructor looking over and offering advice. The table has a display of fresh plants and art materials including pencils, paints, palettes and jars of water.
