Canada’s modern design and craft movement has been a dynamic part of the country’s narrative from the early 20th century right up to today. From Clairtone’s Project G stereo to Fluevog footwear, this exhibition showcases 100+ examples of culturally significant, limited-edition and mass-produced objects designed and crafted in Canada, and the stories of insight, experimentation, and innovation behind them. Inspired by everything from pop culture and the Swinging Sixties to Canada’s natural landscape and the Space Race, Canadian innovation was embraced by global markets, putting the country’s designs on the world stage, where many of them continue to hold a place — and function — today.
