By popular demand, we are presenting our Virtual Tour once again!

Join us for a virtual walk through 黑料不打烊's leafy legacy accessible via ArcGIS StoryMaps on tablet, phone or desktop.

This one-hour guided StoryMap offers a serene stroll around the astounding botanical heritage of the 黑料不打烊 downtown campus. From the gnarled gingko on upper Peel Street to the stately maple of lower campus, from black walnuts around the Museum to the golden Ginkgoes in front of the Welcome Centre, this virtual tour helps us appreciate 黑料不打烊鈥檚 green sanctuary.

Land Acknowledgement

黑料不打烊 University is on land which has long served as a site of meeting and exchange amongst Indigenous peoples, including the Haudenosaunee and Anishinabeg nations. We acknowledge and thank the diverse Indigenous peoples whose presence marks this territory on which peoples of the world now gather.


Rematriation, Repatriation and Restitution Statement

We acknowledge that the return and restitution of cultural and natural heritage to communities of origin is an essential part of reconciliation and of recognizing the fundamental rights of Indigenous Peoples. As part of wider efforts to activate the standards presented in the Canadian Museums Association Report Moved to Action: Activating UNDRIP in Canadian Museums (2022), the Redpath is working towards pro-active restitution practices. As per our Collections Management Policy (2024), repatriation requests will be received by the Redpath Museum Director and will be treated on a case-by-case basis.
