SUMMARY:Where The Rivers Meet
DESCRIPTION:Where The Rivers Meet is a display within the City Gallery that centers the Original Peoples who have been on this land since time immemorial. It includes information about migration\, land relationship\, treaties\, impacts of colonization\, and past and present-day perspectives. The display also considers the founding story of Guelph within the context of a longer history lens. \nThis display is a living exhibition that reflects the truth as we understand it today. We continue to learn from our treaty partner\, the Missisaugas of the Credit First Nation\, and from Indigenous people who call Guelph home today. The display will continue to be updated as our knowledge grows.

SUMMARY:No Word For Art: Exploring the Indigenous Roots of Creativity
DESCRIPTION:Told from historical and contemporary perspectives\, and through the story of beads\, guest curator Naomi Smith shares the ways of the First Nations people of the Woodlands and Northeastern regions of Ontario. No Word for Art features Indigenous beadworks as creative expressions of survival\, crafted by historical artists. The exhibition also includes contemporary beadworks that reflect traditional beading techniques and imagery. \n“Honouring our traditions is my voice within and beyond my culture and community. Traditionally\, there is no word for ‘art’ in Native languages\, yet artistry and visual expression are critical in defining who we are as First Nations people. It is this path I wish to exemplify through my teachings and my work.”\n— Naomi Smith

SUMMARY:Unsettling The Grand: Legacies of Settlement in the Grand River Valley\, from 1700 to the Present Day
DESCRIPTION:What do John Galt and the Canada Company\, the Upper and Lower Canadian Rebellions of 1837-38\, a canal-building enterprise\, and current (and future) land claims all have in common? \nUsing a Two-Eyed Seeing approach\, this exhibition examines the failed enterprise of the Grand River Navigation Company (1832-1861) as a lens through which we can explore historical and contemporary relationships between Indigenous and settler-colonial communities within and along the Grand River watershed. \nThe exhibition dives into the rich and varied historical tapestries of human settlement in the lands currently known as the Grand River Valley in Southern Ontario\, from 1700 to present day. \nIn addition to historical archives\, the display includes stories and creative expressions by Indigenous and settler artists who annually paddle the Grand River in symbolic renewal of the Two Row Wampum. \nCover images: Left: Mohawk Canal\, just east of the Alfred Street bridge in Brantford\, circa 1911 (earliest postmark for this card is September 2\, 1908) Right: Photo courtesy of Two Row on the Grand / http://www.tworowonthegrand.com/ \nUnsettling the Grand is guest curated by Robert Flewelling and funded in part by a grant from The Guelph Community Foundation—Musagetes Fund. \n \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nLeft: Map of Grand River\, 1821(Ridout)Right: Plan of theGrand River & Location of 6 Nations of Indians\, 1828 (Lugger)

SUMMARY:Light A Candle To Curse The Dark
DESCRIPTION:Amid the pomp and plump of Canada’s sesquicentennial\, fifteen metalsmiths from across the country marked the occasion by crafting new sculptures from melted-down post-Confederation silver. Each piece is an expression of form and function – art object and candleholder – that\, together\, nod to the past and offer a glimpse of the future. \nThe original silver came from two Canadian families\, who had used it over five generations but increasingly less often. They recognized that their tea and coffee sets\, serving dishes\, and cutlery had greater material value to the artists. They imagined something beautiful could be made from the old metal. \nThe metalsmiths transformed the silver into candleholders\, each inspired by the accomplishments of Canadian women in the arts. Known as the “Illuminations” series\, each piece includes a recognizable element from the source silver. \nAt Guelph Civic Museum\, the candleholders are displayed within an exhibition that considers the local Victorian-era\, when the fledgling colony aspired to silver service status. The exhibition looks frankly and truthfully at the colonial period\, positioning “Illuminations” as its centre\, and drawing from the artifacts\, archives\, and images in the museum’s collection. \nFeatured artists: Beth Alber (Toronto)\, Jackie Anderson (Calgary)\, Mary Anne Barkhouse (Kwakiutl First Nation)\, Anne Barros (Toronto)\, Brigitte Clavette (New Brunswick)\, Lois Etherington Betteridge (Guelph)\, Fiona Macintyre (Merrickville)\, Charles Funnell (Coburg)\, Chantal Gilbert (Ville de Québec)\, Elizabeth Goluch (Halifax)\, Mary K. McIntyre (Toronto)\, Kye-Yeon Son (Halifax)\, Myra Tulonen Smith (Almonte)\, Anne-Sophie Vallée (Montreal)\, and Ken Vickerson (Toronto). \nThank you to Laura Brandon (retired curator\, Canadian War Museum) and Ann Malone-Bianconi (manager\, interior design and crown collection\, National Capital Commission) for loaning the “Illuminations” series to Guelph Museums. We also acknowledge key contributions from Keith Betteridge (photography)\, Rob Brandon\, and Anne Greenlay. \n\n\n\n	Dance by Charles Funnel \n\n\n	Theatre by Anne-Sophie Vallee \n\n\n	Gastronomy by Chantal Gilbert \n\n\n	Craft by Lois Betteridge \n\n\n	Architecture by Beth Alber \n\n\n	Sculpture by Marie Anne Barkhouse \n\n\n	Music by Jackie Anderson \n\n\n	Fashion & Textile by Fiona MacIntyre \n\n\n	Horticulture by Elizabeth Goluch \n\n\n	Film\, Television & Video by Mary McIntyre \n\n\n	Non-Fiction by Myra Tulonen Smith \n\n\n	Creative Writing by Kye Yeon-Son \n\n\n	Drawing and Painting by Brigitte Clavette \n\n\n	Design by Ken Vickerson \n\n\n	Photography by Anne Barros
