Virtual Programs: Finding the Formula

Over the past two years, the Canadian War Museum has run over a hundred virtual programs for public and school audiences with varying levels of success.

Join us as we outline three case studies, share our key take-aways and expand on our ideas for a hybrid legacy to stay connected with our national, and international, audiences.
