<p><span style="font-size:16px"><span style="font-family:Georgia,serif">The [https://nature.ca/en/about-us/products-services/travelling-exhibition-rentals '''Nature on Tour'''] program of the Canadian Museum of Nature offers travelling exhibitions that provide OLMCs from all across Canada with access to exhibitions and educational experiences. These exhibitions cover a variety of subjects on the theme of nature, in both official languages. They are designed in close collaboration with schools and community organizations in order to enhance and increase community cultural experiences. This serves to educate and inspire Canadians, including the OLMCs, on the history and exploration of nature.

The Museum also signed a multi-year agreement with the Ontario Public School Board aimed at supporting students’ academic success, offering them experiences outside the classroom, and establishing a service offer that meets the needs of Francophone school clienteles by contributing to students’ academic experience while valuing the use of the minority language.
