First World War Comes to Life Sat. & Sun. August 13 & 14, 10 am to 5 pm This fully-animated exhibit explores the lesser known wartime contributions of the Canadian men and women who served beyond the trenches, both at home and overseas. It offers a series of dynamic displays and activities for visitors to experience the sights, sounds, and smells of a world behind the front lines. Visitors of all ages are invited to engage with live costumed interpreters and explore how they too can contribute to the war effort. Generously funded by the Department of Canadian Heritage and Veterans Affairs, First World War Comes to Life is currently travelling across Canada through to 2018 to mark the centenary of the First World War.
