over the province who would visit it on their trips into the city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Eaton\u2019s is fondly remembered by Manitobans of all ages. It can be argued that the fondest of these memories are those of the Christmas season when Eaton\u2019s had its grand Christmas display windows along Portage Avenue and its Eaton Fairytale Vignettes display set up on the ninth floor annex.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Eaton\u2019s Fairytale Vignettes display is comprised of a collection of fifteen storybook vignettes that contain over 300 pieces in total. At each vignette visitors can read the story associated with the vignette on a similar storybook shaped interpretation panel. The Eaton\u2019s Fairytale Vignettes display has been a Winnipeg holiday tradition for over 40 years \u2013 and though the exact age of the dolls in the display is unknown, they are much older than that!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The relocation of the Eaton\u2019s Fairytale Vignettes to the Children\u2019s Museum was initiated by a private citizen after Eaton\u2019s announced it would be closing its local stores in 1999. Representatives from Eaton\u2019s met with a number of non-profit groups who were interested in the display, and in the end chose to give it to the Children\u2019s Museum. The Eaton\u2019s Fairytale Vignettes display officially opened at the Children\u2019s Museum on November 20, 1999 \u2013 and dozens of years later, countless visitors to the museum continue to be thrilled with this acquisition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a cornerstone of Manitoba\u2019s heritage, the Children\u2019s Museum takes the care and upkeep of the Eaton\u2019s Fairytale Vignettes display very seriously. Since being in the museum\u2019s possession, the Eaton\u2019s Fairytale Vignettes display has undergone several significant redevelopments and restorations by heritage conservationists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The primary cost to redevelop and relocate the Eaton\u2019s Fairytale Vignettes to the Children\u2019s Museum in 1999 was $85,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first restoration and refurbishment of the vignettes was in 2006 and cost over $10,000 \u2013 with $5,000 of assistance in grants from The Thomas Sill Foundation and the Heritage Grants Advisory Council.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The most recent redevelopment and restoration was in 2010 as part of the museum\u2019s $10M capital campaign renovations. This restoration cost approximately $75,000 and included the fabrication of new vignette display cases, doll and motor refurbishments, push-button activation, and archival storage supplies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With each passing year and with ongoing support from our community, the Children\u2019s Museum strives to ensure that the Eaton\u2019s Fairytale Vignettes will continue to be on display for visitors to enjoy for many holiday seasons to come.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-pane kt-accordion-pane kt-accordion-pane-1 kt-pane23887_831315-48\"><div class=\"kt-accordion-header-wrap\"><button class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-header kt-acccordion-button-label-show\"><span class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-title-wrap\"><span class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-title\">Additions To The Eaton\u2019s Fairytale Vignettes<\/span><\/span><span class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-icon-trigger\"><\/span><\/button><\/div><div class=\"kt-accordion-panel kt-accordion-panel-hidden\"><div class=\"kt-accordion-panel-inner\">\n<p>From once-upon-a-time to happily-ever-after, the Children\u2019s Museum has been home to the Eaton\u2019s Fairytale Vignettes display since 1999. In 2018, this timeless collection was expanded by a donation of six animatronic woodland characters from the City of Winnipeg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Inspired by&nbsp;<em>The Woodland Nutcracker<\/em>&nbsp;written by Avril Tyrrell, these six characters were part of the Eaton\u2019s holiday display in its last year, and had previously been showcased in the Millennium Library.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mama Grizzly, a large grizzly bear in a red and white striped dress with crinoline, from the Rocky Mountains referees a hockey game between bear cubs in the story. Dressed in ruffled finery, Paco and Rosa are spectacled bears from South America who perform a flamenco dance. Queen Ursa Major is a polar bear from the Pole Star in the Arctic who presides over a special Cirque des Etoiles starring dancing and juggling bears from distant lands. Two ursine Nutcracker Soldiers stand guard and bear (pun intended!) the original Nutcracker story\u2019s namesake that comes alive and whisks Clara off to an imaginary kingdom.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-pane kt-accordion-pane kt-accordion-pane-4 kt-pane23887_8b95cc-6e\"><div class=\"kt-accordion-header-wrap\"><button class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-header kt-acccordion-button-label-show\"><span class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-title-wrap\"><span class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-title\">See More Photos<\/span><\/span><span class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-icon-trigger\"><\/span><\/button><\/div><div class=\"kt-accordion-panel kt-accordion-panel-hidden\"><div class=\"kt-accordion-panel-inner\">\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/manitobachildrensmuseum\/sets\/72157625621377485\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Visit our photo gallery<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Proudly supported in 2024\/25 by Johnston Group Explore a Winnipeg holiday tradition for all generations!
