This Winterlude weekend, explore the fascinating evolution of money in Canada—from beaver pelts to polymer notes—and design your own bank note. Come to the Bank of Canada Museum to discover how money has changed over time through real objects and hands-on exploration. Learn about the materials, imagery, and ideas behind Canadian money, past and present. After tracing the story of money in Canada, get creative at our craft station and design your own bank note. Show us the symbols, designs, and features you’d want to see on your own “currency.”
