Orcas: Our Shared Future was on display at the Royal BC Museum from March 2021 to March 2022.
This exhibition took a deep dive into the stories and science that surround the magnificent orca, spirit of BC’s wild coast and apex predator of all oceans. It examined the currents of ecological activism, popular culture and Indigenous beliefs to share an appreciation of these sophisticated animals, long feared in Western cultures as “killer whales.”
