You’ll have to be fast to catch this Pop Up exhibit on speedy animals at the Redpath Museum!

Inspired by the adrenaline pumping Grand Prix de Montreal, come and see some of nature’s fastest animals and learn how speed can be the difference between life and death in the wild. The temporary exhibit will include special collections rarely displayed, interactive learning activities, Q&A with museum professionals, and a chance to come face to face with some of nature’s original speed freaks.

More details about this special event coming soon!
