The Swift Current Museum has a new exhibition on loan from Ingenium, Canada's Museums of Science and Innovation.

Ingenium collaborated with Environment and Climate Change Canada, Natural Resources Canada, Health Canada, Transport Canada, Fisheries and Oceans Canada, Indigenous Services Canada, Public Health Agency of Canada, and Canadian Geographic, to create this collection. 

Titled, 'To What Degree? Canada in a Changing  Climate,' there's no secret what it's about.  However, William Shepperd, collections officer with the Swift Current Museum, said this exhibit takes a new spin on the topic. 

"The focus on this one is adaptations; how humans, animals and the environment are adapting to the changes that are happening," Shepperd said. 

He added that these climate changing events can range anywhere from forest fires or heat storms, to habitat shifting and quality of life changes.

Swift Current residents can expect a wide variety of experiences through photographs supplemented with moderate text information. 

"It is very visually heavy, with a lot of striking images that even if you're not there for the content, the imagery itself is quite interesting," Shepperd stated. 

According to Shepperd, there's one image that stands out to the majority of viewers: a much larger than life photograph of a tick.  

He said, "It's a close up and the panels are quite large, so it's a good sized picture of it, which always gets a reaction from people."

Don't worry, the whole exhibition isn't just close up photos of 'creepy-crawlies.'

The collection is free for residents to view and is scheduled to be in Swift Current through September of this year.
