The Museum is located just north of The Forks, an area that has been an Indigenous gathering place for thousands of years. Three large entrances are located along Israel Asper Way. From south (closest to The Forks) to north (closest to Provencher Boulevard), they are the Main Entrance, the Accessible Drop-off Entrance and the Group Entrance.
