Dignitaries, luminaries and world leaders all agree – the Canadian Museum for Human Rights is one awe-inspiring setting. This national museum provides visitors with an experience they won't soon forget, while its many event spaces are guaranteed to make a meaningful impression. This is all by design. The interior and exterior of the building were created to evoke a powerful response. Human rights symbolism is incorporated into every structural element, including its glass cloud façade which encases the building like the wings of a dove, along with its famed alabaster ramps which constitute a mesmerizing labyrinth when viewed from above and below. This unique architecture by Antoine Predock has attracted international attention and awards. It's within this setting that you'll discover remarkable rental spaces and amenities available to suit a variety of situations including meetings, professional events, receptions and gala dinners. A fully wired board room, meeting rooms, classrooms and gathering spaces capable of many configurations are ready to meet and exceed your needs. The hundreds of stories told within the Museum's galleries relay the importance of rights for all and, the difference that individuals can and have made. Consider arranging private group tours, or incorporating an ethical shopping experience at the Boutique into your guests' itinerary.
