A one-room hyperlocal exhibit of Toronto's history. Free admission. It took me about 15-20 minutes to go through everything. I think it's worth a visit when also seeing the art galleries housed in the same building.
Awesome exhibit about the history of children's television programming produced in Toronto for the last 42 years. The staff were very friendly and engaging. I cannot recommend it enough!
Visited today for a trivia night, and had a blast! A humble space but they packed it full of interesting exhibits: the space was presenting a history of local TV when I attended and they had a ton of little artifacts and a huge number of preserved media shown on screens. Between the fun exhibits, friendly staff, and pay-what-you-can entry, it's definitely worth a visit if you're in the area!
Interesting for people who grew up in the 1970's to 1990's.....but this is a rather quick stop. What I would suggest is to set the 401 RICHMOND as a COMPLETE destination and NOT just this museum.
Check the opening hours as this place is (strangely during the summer tourist season) closed on the weekends
A great effort for nostalgia with some great artifacts....but a lot of written history to read. Many things parts of the exhibit are available to listen to with headphones and some hands-on materials and games for the young people ...but I am still somewhat hesitant in this post-COVID era with all this accessible material. Parents might want o bring sterile wipes with them.
There are some terrific stores on the main floor and interesting art galleries on the floors above.

From the moment I stepped foot into this space I was thrown right back into my childhood.
Talk about nostalgia.
It made this 50 year old feel 5 for a few hours.
We sat and made a puppet for like 2 hours and shared lots of laughs and just being in the moment.
I enjoyed it so much.
Such a great place.
Do yourself a favor and visit!!

I recently had the opportunity to visit the Myseum of Toronto, and I must say, the name itself is intriguing and captivating. Upon arriving at the location, I discovered that this museum is actually a digital experience rather than a physical one. It operates in temporary spaces, such as its current location in the 401 building, hosting special exhibitions for a limited period of time.
Although the museum may be small in size and digital in nature, it offers a wealth of interactive and informative exhibitions that are sure to captivate visitors. I was pleasantly surprised by the range of experiences they provide. From exploring the history of TV shows to engaging with videos, audio installations, and hands-on art and craft activities, the Myseum of Toronto offers a unique and engaging way to delve into various aspects of Toronto's culture and heritage.
If you find yourself in downtown Toronto, I highly recommend paying a visit to this museum. Despite its digital format, it provides a rich and immersive experience that showcases the city's vibrant history and cultural significance. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable, always ready to assist and provide insights into the exhibits.
While the Myseum of Toronto may not have a permanent physical location, its temporary presence and ever-changing exhibitions make each visit a fresh and exciting experience. Whether you are a local resident or a visitor to the city, this museum offers a unique perspective on Toronto's cultural heritage that is not to be missed.

This spot is so unique and unlike any other museum in the city. It shared local histories of Toronto and has unique exhibits throughout the year. This season they have a Canadian pop culture exhibit called
Mr. Dress Up to Degrassi. It features a tribute to popular kids television shows aired from the 1950s to 1990s. The exhibit will have extended hours for Doors Open.
It’s pretty centrally located downtown with plenty of parking and transit nearby.
Make sure to check it out!
