“From Vimy to Juno: Remembering Canadians in France.”
A special 100th anniversary exhibition to illustrate the history of the memory of the 52 000 Canadians buried in French soil today as a result of the country’s participation in 2 world wars in Europe. France is by far the country in which there is the highest number of Canadian war dead. This exhibition features the enduring Franco-Canadian friendship and bonds forged in fire. The exhibition came with 3 digital apps I designed (family, primary and secondary levels versions) that allowed for members of a family or classmates to interact, dialogue and compete with one another.

This exhibition was created to foster intergenerational dialogue between grandparents (who experienced war as children) and their grandchildren. The exhibition came with 3 digital apps I designed (family, primary and secondary levels versions)
