THE ROOMS is Newfoundland and Labrador’s largest public cultural space. Here, history, heritage and artistic expression come together. The Rooms is a portal to the many stories this province and its people have to tell. Here, you’ll find collections, exhibits and programs that tell our stories and interpret our natural world through art, artifacts, archaeology, architecture, and archival records. A remarkable feature of the skyline of historic St. John’s, The Rooms unique design mirrors the fishing rooms where families came together to process their catch. This building, like the collections and exhibitions it houses, represents a tribute to our people and a place in which to preserve our history and culture for generations to come.
