From award-winning director Jamie Kastner and executive producer Mark Anthony Jacobson comes There Are No Fakes, a journey into the largest art fraud scam in Canadian history.

Musician Kevin Hearn of the Barenaked Ladies buys a painting, “Spirit Energy of Mother Earth,” attributed to Norval Morrisseau, the Ojibway founder of the Woodland School. Acclaimed by Picasso and Chagall, Morrisseau is widely recognized to be the world’s first Indigenous art star.

Hearn begins to have doubts about the painting’s authenticity, pursues the truth and finds himself in the middle of a feud between two warring factions of white people, and an unbelievable new tale emerges about the origin of the paintings.

Wine, beer, soft drinks and snacks available for purchase at Admissions Desk.

Admission to museum not included.
