A discussion of The Bruce Museum's new exhibition, " Discovering the 'New World': Maps & Sea Charts from the Age of Exploration," will be held on March 1. The exhibition, which will run until May 31, features more than 30 European-made maps and sea charts inspired by New World exploration. They were all published between 1511 and 1757, and present a study in geographic and human progress as well as a feast for the eyes.
