Members enjoy unlimited free admission, exclusive previews, discounts, and much more. | | ROM Marks Major Milestone with First Curator of Climate Change | | With the threat of the climate crisis reaching new levels of urgency, ROM recently announced the appointment of environmental scientist and researcher Dr. Soren Brothers as the inaugural Allan and Helaine Shiff Curator of Climate Change. The first role of its kind at a major museum, this position marks how ROM is uniquely situated to address this pressing global issue and can play a greater role in advancing the science of climate change, biodiversity, and conservation, and deepening public engagement on these vital topics. | | Wildlife Photographer of the Year | | Opens tomorrow. The longest-running and most prestigious nature photography competition in the world returns to ROM for the ninth year in a row. The exhibition's stunning images allow visitors to experience nature in vivid detail and get up close to some of the world's most extraordinary species, the lives they live, and the challenges they face.
Wildlife Photographer of the Year is developed and produced by the Natural History Museum, London. | | Willner Madge Gallery, Dawn of Life | | The first gallery of its kind in North America brings the dawn of life to life. | | Opens December 4, 2021.
