Bruins leadership unveiled a 6-foot tall, 10-foot-long bear outside the TD Garden Saturday – marking 100 years of hockey in Boston. The Centennial celebration has lasted nearly a year and will be capped off Sunday during the Centennial Game against the Montreal Canadiens. Sunday marks 100 years since the Bruins first game in 1924 at Matthews Arena.

“It is a tribute to every player every coach and every fan that’s helped shape our history for the last century,” said Bruins CEO Charlie Jacobs about the statue. Bruins president Cam Neely at the ceremony Saturday added, “We continue to honor the past and look forward to our collective great future.”

The statue weighs roughly 3,500 pounds and is made up of 90 bronze pieces welded together. It was sculpted by Harry Weber, the same artist who created the Bobby Orr statue outside TD Garden.

The Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame opened a brand new exhibit Friday celebrating the history and culture of the Boston Celtics.

Friday marks 10 years since the deadliest landslide in U.S. history, one that devastated the town of Oso, and the families of those who were lost.

Today, marks 10 years since the Oso Landslide. And today, right beneath the scar left by that tragic event, a memorial stands — a testament to dedication and a $5 million investment.

The Boston Bruins cut the ribbon on a new exhibition celebrating 100 years of the franchise's history.

It's filled with dozens of artifacts, replicas of the Stanley Cup trophy, augmented reality features and a film about the team history that plays on a 30-foot-wide screen. Fans will enter past a wall of 1,690 hockey pucks displayed over the year 1924, symbolizing the year the team was established as the first National Hockey League hockey team in the United States.

The new, permanent museum was created by the Bruins and The Sports Museum, a non-profit organization based at TD Garden. Boston Bruins Heritage Hall will be open during The Sports Museum's normal business hours.

The permanent, interactive and immersive exhibit celebrating the Bruins 100-year history is located on Level 2 of TD Garden and will open to the public March 6.

The United by Hockey Mobile Museum is introduced by co-creator Kwame Mason and Jeff Scott, NHL VP of Community Development and Growth.

Vue Orleans is an unprecedented cultural attraction and observation experience that takes place in a New Orleans historical landmark, the former World Trade Center. While the building itself was transformed into a luxury Four Seasons Hotel, the culture and history embedded within the building is brought to the forefront in a one-of-a-kind exhibit experience.

Visitors are swept away in an immersive, exciting, and engaging journey that highlights Crescent City’s fascinating 300-year history and vibrant culture. Every turn entertains, educates, and surprises through interactive media exhibits celebrating the essence of New Orleans and how the Mississippi River shaped its physical and cultural landscape.

The full New Orleans experience—music, food, art, civil rights, river, and bayou—comes alive through memorable exhibit design and colorful environmental graphics enhanced with experiential technology, including movement-responsive digital murals, transparent storytelling displays, augmented reality viewers, game-based interactives, and immersive theaters. By celebrating multiculturalism and how the confluence of cultures shaped the city, Vue Orleans literally offers a new perspective of the iconic Big Easy.

CambridgeSeven—the historic Massachusetts office cofounded in 1962 by Ivan Chermayeff, Peter Chermayeff, and five other modernist luminaries—released images this month showing their newest project in the City of Lake Charles, Louisiana.

The Port Wonder Children’s Museum & Nature Center is a 32,000-square-foot hub by CambridgeSeven overlooking Louisiana’s scenic Lake Charles. At the new $20 million building, 23,600 square feet will be dedicated to a new children’s museum and 8,400 square feet will be used for a new sustainability-focused science center. The building will have access to a fishing pier that connects visitors with the water.

The architects designed the roofline to mimic the waterways leading to Lake Charles. The design’s distinct two curved “crests” house the children’s museum and science center, respectively, and share a lobby courtyard. “We wanted something that was iconic and eye-catching,” said Lake Charles Mayor Nic Hunter.

The National Hockey League today announced the return of the United by Hockey Mobile Museum, a free fan experience that celebrates hockey’s trailblazers, changemakers and business leaders spanning various demographics. The traveling museum, in collaboration with ALXMOBILE and supported by the Hockey Hall of Fame, will begin its seven-month tour across North America in Ottawa on Oct. 14.

Last season’s successful tour saw the museum travel 15,000 miles across North America and host more than 20,000 fans in a commitment to highlight diversity in hockey. The unique experience of 840 square feet of history includes exclusive artifacts from players from a wide array of backgrounds; video components; and a look at the next generation of young stars, NHL Officials, broadcasters and women in the game.

“We are excited to again bring the unique and engaging United by Hockey Mobile Museum to every NHL Club market to showcase reimagined interactive displays, photos and facts to allow a new generation of players and fans the opportunity to engage with the sport of hockey,” said Jeff Scott, NHL Vice President, Community Development & Growth. “We have added a VR experience, podcast wall and adaptability display as well as highlighted some of the inspirational moments from the past NHL season to further spotlight our great game in a creative manner.”

Audubon Nature Institute announces June 8 is the opening date for the new, reimagined and redesigned Audubon Aquarium and Audubon Insectarium on the New Orleans Riverfront. The grand opening coincides with World Ocean Day.

The Aquarium temporarily closed in November to undergo months of extensive renovation, while Audubon Insectarium relocated from its former home at the U.S. Custom House to the Aquarium building. Having the two popular attractions in one location will provide guests with a one-of-a-kind opportunity as it is the only facility in the world to house both an aquarium and an insectarium under the same roof.

Guests will be immersed in experiences featuring the beauty and stunning diversity of wildlife and habitats from around the world, from local Louisiana bayous to the Gulf of Mexico, Caribbean through South and Central America and the Amazon River basin.

“Through our reimagining, visitors will experience many of their favorite Aquarium exhibits in an entirely new way. Not only are there new animals in our care, but educational opportunities to showcase the important connections between humans, animals, and the environment,” said Rich Toth, Senior Vice-President and Director of Audubon’s downtown facilities.  “It is especially exciting to open the doors for our newly renovated Aquarium on World Ocean Day, the day set aside to celebrate the world’s oceans and what we can do to protect them.”

The United States is officially back “in the game,” leading the fight against climate change, said US Representative Kathy Castor, chair of the House Select Committee on the Climate Crisis. “And we’re not leaving the playing field ever again.”

Castor and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi spoke on Thursday about how the United States is addressing the climate crisis at an Atlantic Council Front Page event hosted by the Adrienne Arsht-Rockefeller Foundation Resilience Center at the United Nations Climate Change Conference of the Parties (COP27) in Sharm el Sheikh, Egypt.

While the United States—which withdrew from the Paris Climate Accords in 2019 but rejoined the agreement in 2021—has seen its climate leadership questioned, Castor said the country now has the tools to meet its emissions reduction goals. Those tools, she explained, include the bipartisan infrastructure law and the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), the latter of which she deemed the “most important climate bill” in US history.
