About

Join us for the Unstacking the Deck: A Game of Change, Exhibition & Sale.

The exhibition runs September 2 - October 14, 2022.

Unstacking the Deck is a double deck of playing cards and mini research booklet celebrating early women architects who studied and worked in Manitoba: from the first University of Manitoba woman Bachelor of Architecture graduate in 1932, to women who forged careers in the 1960-70s. The exhibition features the playing cards and research process. The decks will be for sale in the Winnipeg Architecture Foundation office.

Masks are mandatory.

The exhibition takes place in the foyer of the Winnipeg Architecture Foundation at 266 McDermot. Accessibility: there are seven steps (no railing) in the foyer. The WAF offices are typically open 12-4pm on weekdays.
