150 Species for Canada 150
November 17, 11:00 AM, Royal Saskatchewan Museum
When people get a chance to see what goes on behind the scenes at a museum like the Royal Saskatchewan Museum, they are often excited to learn about the size and inherent value of the collections. To recognize the 150th year of Confederation, we are putting 150 species from the provincial natural history and fossil collections on display. Museums like the RSM collect and study specimens like these to preserve them for future generations and to better understand the life around us. This exhibit is a chance to see part of the collections up close and learn more about how we know when a new species is discovered, why their names are important, and how species get their names.
Do you want to be a part of 150 for 150? Join the list of donors who are proud parents of a 150 for 150 species. Every adoption will include:

- your name on the Museum’s website and in the Friends of the Museum Annual Report
- a charitable tax receipt
