Visitors to Toronto can explore a new exhibition examining a thousand-year record of human impact on the planet. Crawford Lake: Layers in Time is currently open at Level 3, European Rotating Exhibitions, and runs until January 3, 2027. Admission to the exhibition is included with regular museum admission.
Located just outside Toronto near Milton, Ontario, Crawford Lake has been studied by scientists for decades due to its unique varved sediments. These thin, alternating layers of calcite and organic sediment record environmental changes year by year, similar to tree rings. The site is a candidate for the 'golden spike' marker representing the start of the Anthropocene epoch.
The exhibition features:
Indigenous belongings and settler objects
Local and introduced plants
Historical documentation and related artworks
Core samples from the lake
Visitors can also use the Hike the ROM trail guide to explore related themes of climate change, natural extinctions, and human interaction throughout history.
