The Royal British Columbia Museum is set to unveil a series of diverse exhibits in 2025, including wildlife photography, Indian chintz textiles, and the migration of Chinese Canadians. The museum has also reopened some of its classic exhibits, such as the HMS Discovery replica and the gold-mining waterwheel, with new interpretive panels.
Stunning wildlife photography , Indian chintz textiles, migration journeys of Chinese Canadians and the music of resistance and change are among new exhibits coming to the Royal British Columbia Museum in 2025.
The third-floor galleries were closed late in 2021 to “decolonize” exhibits, sharply reducing the number of visitors to the museum. A new display, Forgotten Landscapes, is now in the human history galleries, showcasing long-lost landscape paintings from the early 1900s uncovered in May 2023 by the museum’s exhibition team.
This year, the grand prize adult winner is Nanaimo-based photojournalist Shane Gross, whose photo The Swarm of Life depicts western toad tadpoles swimming in the sunlight beneath lily pads in a lake near Campbell River. John E. Marriott of Canmore, Alta., was the only other Canadian winner. His photo of a family of lynx in the Yukon won the Animal Portraits category.
