Join us for a stirring exploration of Black Canadian history with a special edition of our Fourth Friday concert series. Tracy Cain, a Guelph-based descendant of Freedom Seekers, shares her journey through music and video in “And Then What Happened…” Cain, a 5th generation Black Canadian, has delved into her rich heritage, uncovering stories of resilience and tenacity passed down through generations. Through an interactive presentation, Cain will guide us on a poignant musical voyage, celebrating the courageous journey of Black Canadian pioneers who sought freedom in Canada via the Underground Railroad. This performance beautifully complements our current exhibition ‘Folklore: Being and Belonging in the Grand River Region, before and after 1827’, where stories of the Back Loyalists shine as one of the key narratives.

The performance will be 60-75 mins with no interval.

Every Fourth Friday of the month enjoy free admission to the Civic Museum from 5 to 9 pm and  a free performance starting at 7 pm.

Cash bar. NOTE: Preregistration is not required.
