Help! I have huge gaps in my schedule!
Are you one of those people with ridiculously long breaks in your schedule and don’t know what to do with them? No, I can’t help you fix your schedule but I can recommend killing one of those at the Museum for Anthropology!
Situated conveniently at the Northeast corner of UBC, the Museum of Anthropology is a nice place to delve deeper into North America’s Native culture in the large First Nations Gallery. Take out a $20 bill. Did you know that the sculpture of the raven on a clam shell is located in the museum? Bill Reid, the sculpter of Raven and the First Men, also has many other works that are located in the museum.
For those of you who would love to spend the day lost in the museum looking at every artifact, the museum’s Multiversity Gallery has pull out drawers filled with surprises to keep you occupied for hours. Maybe even days. They also have a European ceramics gallery so you can check that out too.
Best of all, it’s free for UBC students! That’s right, just show your UBC Card at the counter to redeem your free admission.
Happy museum-ing!
Not to mention that the best (secret) place to study on campus — the basement area of the Anthropology and Sociology building — is conveniently situated beside MOA.
