The Toronto Museum Project online (TMp Online) is a virtual exhibit where artifacts are used to explore stories and ideas tied to Toronto’s past, present and future. This interactive website weaves 100 artifacts, 100 Torontonians, 100 stories and 100 exhibit ideas into an entirely new way of exploring Toronto’s history.
The images, stories and ideas form an exhibit which speaks to the many ways we come together to create community in the city. The public is invited on TMp Online to contribute their thoughts on what has made – and what continues to make – Toronto a dynamic, liveable and fascinating place.
By engaging with artifacts, personal stories and the broader collective meaning of those stories, Torontonians can join and expand the dialogue about what could be featured in a Toronto Museum. Through TMp Online, the public will gain a new appreciation of Toronto’s richness while building a greater collective understanding of how we define and interact with the City’s historic treasures. Please visit the site to learn more.
