When the outside is inhospitable, go inside to the fascinating Bruce Museum, where art, science and natural history come together for a unique perspective on our world. Take a docent-led or self-guided audio tour through the expansive museum. The art collection includes work from Childe Hassam to Alexander Calder, as well as photos, sculpture, drawings and prints. There’s French art glass and highly decorative pipes (including Meerschaums). There are collections of ladies’ gowns and World War I posters. The science collection includes minerals and fossils, bird and mammal mounts (including extinct species like the passenger pigeon), butterflies and skeletons. Don’t miss the ethnology collection featuring items from Navajo jewelry to Inuit soapstone carvings.
