“Who is one of the most quoted Canadians in history?” “Who anticipated the Internet, its social impacts, and its dangers decades before its public emergence?” “Which world-class media visionary grew up in Winnipeg?” If you answered “Marshall McLuhan”, you’d be correct!
Come to the most significant Winnipeg home in Marshall’s life, and learn more about this amazing mind. Come to the front yard and participate in an impromptu exchange of ideas by and about him. Come into the house for a tour and short video of “McLuhan Speaks”, and for a donation, enjoy refreshments in “McLuhan’s Salon”!
Guided tours of the building will run every 30 minutes starting at 11:00am, with the last tour beginning at 4:oopm. No tour at 1:30pm. Tours will be approximately 30 minutes in length with a maximum of 15 guests. No registration required!
Outdoor events will be cancelled in the case of heavy rain or thunderstorms. Indoor events will proceed regardless of the weather. Weather related cancellations will NOT be posted.
