SUMMARY:Special Exhibition Tour for U of T Alumni: Arctic Fever at Fisher Library
DESCRIPTION:U of T alumni are warmly invited to a special private tour of 
 Arctic Fever\, an exhibition that explores the powerful allure—and 
 enduring impact—of Arctic exploration.\n\nToday\, the Arctic is at the 
 forefront of global conversations about climate change and its effects on 
 northern circumpolar ecosystems and Indigenous communities. Yet the phrase 
 “Arctic fever” originated in the nineteenth century\, capturing the 
 era’s intense fascination with Arctic discovery. This exhibition brings 
 past and present into dialogue through striking visual and textual accounts 
 of the circumpolar North.\n\nFeaturing Western exploration narratives\, 
 works of fiction\, technological displays\, and panoramic spectacles\, 
 Arctic Fever also highlights rare ephemera such as newspapers and 
 illustrated playbills. Importantly\, the exhibition foregrounds Indigenous 
 perspectives on Arctic travel and life\, offering a fuller and more nuanced 
 understanding of the region’s histories.\n\nCurated by Mark A. Cheetham 
 (University of Toronto) and Isabelle Gapp (University of Aberdeen)\, this 
 exhibition draws on extraordinary collections that continue to shape 
 research\, teaching\, and public scholarship at U of T.\n\nCome back\, 
 reconnect\, and experience these remarkable materials with fellow alumni in 
 an intimate\, guided setting.\n\nKindly register each individual attending 
 separately. If you require any special accommodations\, please contact us 
 at fisher.events@utoronto.ca.
