• 2026 DO - Marshall McLuhan House resized

507 Gertrude Avenue

“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”!

Doors Open Winnipeg 2026 is now complete. Join us next year for Doors Open Winnipeg 2027 on May 29th and 30th!

Free event parking is available in the Gladstone School parking lot at 500 Gertrude Avenue.
