Legacy of a Legend
It is with great sadness that The Manitoba Museum reflects on the passing of Canadian wildlife artist Clarence Tillenius (1913-2012) at the age of 98.
Tillenius created some of the Museum’s most loved and well-known dioramas, including the Bison Hunt at the entrance to the galleries, and the polar bear and caribou dioramas in the Arctic-Sub Arctic Gallery. He was responsible for the “large mammal” diorama in every Museum gallery except Parklands. Read More…
Win a Nonsuch T-Shirt Signed by Justin Bieber & Selena Gomez
Ever since Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez enjoyed a private catered dinner aboard the Nonsuch last fall, the ship has held a special place in the couple’s hearts. They both signed a black Nonsuch T-shirt, in the hopes that funds raised from auctioning the item would benefit the Museum’s Nonsuch Conservation Project. The 17th century replica ketch is in need of repairs to keep it accessible to future generations of Museum visitors.
Now is your chance to own this rare piece of Bieber/Gomez memorabilia, an extraordinary find for collectors, fans, and music buffs. Tickets for the raffle can be ordered here until 5 pm on Sunday, April 8th, 2012. Read More…
