Events Description

 

Visit the Royal Alberta Museum on February 26, 2026 and be one of the first people to see their new feature exhibition – Death: Life’s Greatest Mystery.

Some people fear it. Others embrace it. But all of us must eventually face it.

For every living being on this planet, death is the greatest mystery of them all. The ways that we experience it, celebrate life, and wonder about what’s next are part of what makes us human— yet it’s also a subject we often push aside.

Death: Life’s Greatest Mystery invites you to consider your own “big questions” about death as you explore natural and cultural responses to life’s inevitable conclusion. Through artifacts, specimens, interactives, and immersive media experiences, you’ll discover amazing animal adaptations used for survival and learn how various cultures commemorate life.

Reflect on death as part of the natural cycle of life and leave with a profound new understanding of life’s most universal experience.

Visit Death: Life’s Greatest Mystery at the Royal Alberta Museum from February 26 -September 7, 2026.
