SUMMARY:Guelph Circa 1999
DESCRIPTION:Like entering a time capsule\, visitors will discover Guelph of 20 years ago. Told through the stories of the people who spent time at The Bookshelf\, a cultural hub in this city since 1973. \nDowntown Guelph in the late 1990s was vibrant\, brimming with entrepreneurship\, and teeming with energy. Barb and Doug Minett were the owner-operators of The Bookshelf\, a cultural hub in downtown Guelph since 1973. They had the idea to capture Guelph’s unique social environment through a portrait series. Their concept was inspired by an exhibition they had seen in Toronto\, a salon-style installation of black-and-white portraits by German photographer August Sander (1876–1964). They commissioned Guelph photographer Dean Palmer. \nBarb\, Doug\, and Dean compiled a list of more than 100 downtown personalities\, local business owners\, and people who were shaping Guelph’s cultural community. They called the project The Greenroom Series\, after the dining space adjacent to the eBar\, where the portraits were exhibited. The title also alludes to the “green room” in theatre where performers can relax when they are not performing. The completed series featured 16 portraits of people photographed in their natural environments. \nFeaturing portraits of Andy the Barber\, Ian Findlay\, Jaqueline Gilbey\, Diego Hadarits\, Ajay Heble\, Tom King\, Grant Love\, Mark McAlpine\, Fred Mollison\, Harri Palm and Molly Kurvink\, Fredericka Potvin\, Ryan Price\, Joan Rentoul\, Tannis Slimmon\, Emma Smith\, and Jessica Steinhauser. \nThe Greenroom Series was donated to Guelph Museums’ permanent collection in 2018. This exhibition represents the series in its entirety\, encapsulating Guelph on the cusp of the new millennium. \n  \nRelated Events:\n \nHistory Bites: Guelph Circa 1999\nGuelph Museums curator Dawn Owen chats about Guelph Circa 1999 with special guests Ajay Heble\, Dean Palmer\, Ian Findlay\, Jessica Steinhauser\, and Mark McAlpine. Watch guests compete in a 90s trivia challenge\, as they reflect on the cultural life of Guelph in the 1990s.

SUMMARY:Her Story: Trailblazers of Guelph and Wellington County
DESCRIPTION:In fall 2019\, the Canadian Federation of University Women (CFUW) approached Guelph Museums about an exhibition that would mark the 75th anniversary of CFUW Guelph. Through the stories of local women\, who fought for the advancement of the status of women\, the exhibition began to take shape. The goal was to write the history of Her Story and to share women’s legacies in Guelph\, past and present. \nThen\, in March 2020\, the Covid-19 pandemic forced the temporary closure of Guelph Museums. What began as a display in the museum became a major research project and a virtual exhibition. \nCFUW Guelph sought a partnership with the Community Engaged Scholarship Institute and the College of Arts at the University of Guelph. Under the guidance of Professor Catherine Carstairs\, nine students undertook the research and writing and the Canadian Writing Research Collaboratory agreed to host the virtual exhibition. \nHer Story: Trailblazers of Guelph and Wellington County celebrates women who have led the way towards a diverse and gender inclusive community. The project aimed to share the stories of cisgender women\, trans women\, two-spirit\, and gender non-conforming people. We recognize the historical barriers faced by all women. We acknowledge that Black\, Indigenous and People of Colour and LGBTQ2IA+ women have faced and continue to face even greater barriers. \nThe featured trailblazers are activists\, artists\, caregivers\, health care workers\, mothers\, politicians\, scientists\, and writers\, as well as women-led organizations. We celebrate their accomplishments. They show us that change is possible. \nHer Story: Women Trailblazers of Guelph and Wellington County Virtual Exhibition\nFeatured Trailblazers\nTito Alawode\, Kim Anderson\, Parvathi Basrur\, Lois Betteridge\, Norma Bowen\, Deanna Clatworthy\, Amy Ellard-Gray\, Karen Farbridge\, Anne Godfrey\, Adelaide Hoodless\, Gwen Jacob\, Suzy Lake\, Jean Little\, Marisse Scott\, Shakiba Shayani\, Jan Sherman\, Audny-Cashae Stewart\, Gayle Valeriote\, Marva Wisdom\, and Anne-Marie Zajdlik \nTrailblazing Organizations\nCanadian Federation of University Women – Guelph\, Chalmers Community Services\, Guelph-Wellington Women In Crisis\, The Suffrage Movement in Guelph and Wellington County\, and Zonta Club of Guelph \nStudent Researchers\nTanesha Black\, Julia Cole\, Shelby Mawson\, Sofia Mayer\, Emma Ongman\, Brittany Pompilii\, Anne Sanatagi\, Nicole Scott\, and Katrina Stephany \nAcknowledgements\nThe project benefitted from the invaluable guidance of Susan Brown\, Kim Martin\, Mihaela Ilovan\, and Thomas Smith of the Canadian Writing Research Collaboratory. CFUW Guelph\, through Isobel Boyle\, Mary McEwen and Teresa McKeeman\, provided inspiration and key support. Many historians shared their research in women’s history and the history of Guelph. Thank you to Heidi Bohaker\, Christine Bold\, Vicki Hodgkinson\, Franca Iacovetta\, Kris Inwood\, Melissa McAfee\, and Alison Norman. Trailblazers were nominated by Denise Francis of the Guelph Black Heritage Society\, Sarah Dermer at Chalmers Community Services\, and Amanda Derksen at the Guelph Chamber of Commerce\, as well as by individuals from across the region. \nProject Partners\n   \nRelated Events:\n\n\n\n \nHistory Bites – Her Story: Trailblazers of Guelph and Wellington County\nWednesday\, October 21\, 12 to 1 p.m. | ONLINE\nJoin us Guelph Museums’ curator Dawn Owen for an online series of bite-sized conversations inspired by current exhibitions and stories from the collection.

SUMMARY:Fred Hallett and The Sewing Machine Factory
DESCRIPTION:Alfred “Fred” Thomas Hallett was born in October 1863 in Lewisham\, Kent\, England – over 150 years ago! His parents\, William and Eliza\, moved their family to Canada in May 1869\, when Fred was six years old. He had seven siblings: William\, Henry\, John\, Elizabeth\, Esther\, Charles\, and Arthur. \nThe Hallett family settled in Guelph. At the age of twelve\, Fred left school to work at Raymond’s Sewing Machine Company. He operated a machine called a gear cutter. \nOn February 3\, 1879\, Fred’s hand was caught in the gear cutter. He tried to pull free\, but he lost his arm in the accident. Fred recovered from his injury and returned to work at Raymond’s Factory. He became a wheel turner\, a task that he could do with one arm. \nFred lived in Guelph until 1891. When he was 28 years old\, he moved to Chicago\, Illinois\, USA. He got married a year later. Fred and his wife Emily had four children: Hazel\, Alfred\, William\, and Anna. Their descendants continue to live in Upper State New York\, USA. \nFred’s story is a permanent fixture of the Families Gallery but this display featuring Fred Hallett\, Raymond Sewing Machine Factory and child labour in 19th century Guelph extends beyond the gallery to the second floor\, opposite from the elevator. \nThanks to local historian Bonnie Durtnall\, Labouring All Our Lives\, who discovered Fred Hallett’s story. Her research contributed greatly to this display. \nPortrait of Alfred “Fred” Hallett\, Courtesy of Tom Large.

SUMMARY:Memory Cycle: Re-Sonified Artifacts
DESCRIPTION:Memory Cycle: Re-Sonified Artifacts is a collaboration between Guelph Civic Museum and musician Gordon Monahan. This exhibition is a foray into the parlour rooms of Victorian Guelph and an experiment with Victorian-era piano recordings. \nWorking with the museum\, Monahan selected 19th-century artifacts from the permanent collection. Using furniture\, farm equipment\, and keyboard instruments\, Monahan experiments with period sound by transmitting vibrations through the artifacts. \nVisitors to the exhibition hear sounds once emitted by the instruments on display. In a process called sonification (and re-sonification)\, Monahan works with the principle that vibration is perceived by the human ear as sound. The artifacts become sounding objects — transmitters of recorded sound — as well as sound sculptures. \nThe sound installation in the midst of a Victorian-era parlour room offers a ghostly rendition of music that once vibrated through the displayed artifacts. Like memory\, the circulation (and re-circulation) of sound calls forth the music and history of times past. \n\n		\n		\n			\n				\n			\n				\n				Installation View\n				\n			\n				\n			\n				\n				Sound Transducer on Victorian Crib\n				\n		\n\n \nHear a conversation about Memory Cycle with Guelph Museums’ Curator Dawn Owen\, Jesse Stewart\, and artist Gordon Monahan: \n\nMemory Cycle was researched\, developed and presented by Gordon Monahan with the support of the Canada Council for the Arts.

SUMMARY:From Farmland Irrigation to Martian Exploration: 125 Years of Physics in Guelph
DESCRIPTION:“I believe the scientific farmer is going to be the farmer of the future. […] If farming is to be made a success in this country\, it has to be done on a scientific basis.” \n— J.B. Reynolds (1867-1948) \nWith that pronouncement in 1895\, the Department of Physics was born at the newly formed Ontario Agricultural College (est. 1874). Since then\, the Department of Physics at the University of Guelph has grown to become one of the most respected in Canada. With a rich history of research and a strong commitment to innovation in teaching\, Guelph Physics has come a long way since its agrarian roots.

SUMMARY:Military Lecture - The Great Sickness of 1740: War\, Typhus\, and the Royal Navy
DESCRIPTION:The Capture of Puerto Bello\, 21 November 1739 by George Chambers\, Senior\, 1836\, National Maritime Museum\, Greenwich BHC0355 \n  \nPaul Mansell presents\, The Great Sickness of 1740: War\, Typhus\, and the Royal Navy. \nIn 1739\, after two and a half decades of relative peace\, Spain and Britain entered into the War of Jenkins’ Ear (1739-48). This war became subsumed into the War of Austrian Succession 1740-48) and has not received a lot of attention from historians. The Royal Navy had been actively recruiting seaman since the spring of 1739 and hostilities broke out in the summer. The navy found it had an unexplained shortage of active personnel despite doubling the number of seamen. Ships were not ready\, military operations were delayed\, and Walpole’s government demanded answers for the disarray. What stymied the navy was an alarming number of ill seamen and the cases mounted all through 1740. Sick quarters in several parts of Britain were completely overwhelmed by virulent epidemic typhus known as the “Great Sickness.” \nTyphus was an unsolvable problem for 18th century medicine\, being a contagion that caused record levels of mortality without any hope of a cure. The epidemic is largely forgotten now\, but by the end of 1742 it became the worst typhus epidemic of the century after it spread from the naval towns to the rest of Britain. The navy’s response to the outbreak is instructive because it demonstrates both the pitfalls of not responding adequately at the outset of a crisis and the successes of coordinated and targeted measures of prevention that remain effective today. The episode provides an example of how an organization under extreme stress managed to remain functional despite devastating numbers of incapacitated personnel. \nOffered in partnership with the Laurier Centre for Military\, Strategic and Disarmament Studies. \n\nDid you miss the live event? Watch Military Lecture: The Great Sickness of 1740 below: \n \n  \n\nAbout Paul Mansell:\n \nPaul Mansell studies military\, medical\, and early modern European history at Wilfrid Laurier University. His PhD dissertation examines the reactions of medical authorities and the Royal Navy to the worst British typhus epidemic of the 18th century. His interests also include the history of technology\, building upon his background in electro-mechanical engineering\, aerospace\, and military aircraft.

SUMMARY:Rapid Response: Collecting Experiences as they are Lived
DESCRIPTION:The COVID-19 pandemic is a major moment in history. On March 11\, 2020 the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic. On March 17\, Ontario declared a state of emergency\, prompting citywide closures and social distancing protocols. In April 2020\, the Museum\, while closed to visitors\, launched a call to community for contemporary objects and personal expressions reflecting our individual and collective experiences. \nOn May 25\, 2020\, the death of George Floyd in the US spurred the Black Lives Matter movement to international urgency. Locally\, the Guelph Black Heritage Society organized a peaceful protest and march through downtown Guelph. On June 6\, 2020\, over 5\,000 people gathered to raise awareness of lives lost in violence. \nGuelph Museums and the Guelph Black Heritage Society partnered in the commitment to preserve the stories and experiences of Guelph individuals\, families\, and communities as we face these crises together. \nThis exhibition shares some of the hundreds of images\, creative expressions\, and physical objects that have been collected at Guelph Museums since April 2020 to document the local story of this historic time\, as we live it. \n\n\nThis artwork by Emily Vander Vlugt depicts a crowd of protestors led by Kween\, Executive Director of the Guelph Black Heritage Society. Kween made this audio recording in response to Emily’s artwork.\nThe art work and audio\, jointly titled No Justice\, No Peace\, are featured in the exhibition Rapid Response: Collecting Experiences as they are Lived at Guelph Museums\, from July 27\, 2021 to February 27\, 2022.\n\nHear a conversation with donors to the exhibition: \n\nPresented in partnership with:

SUMMARY:Military Lecture: Complicated Justice - A Canadian Response to War Crimes and War Criminals
DESCRIPTION:Using the Canadian trials at the end of the Second World War as evidence\, guest lecturer Katelyn Arac discusses the challenging nature of post-war proceedings. Military courts had the potential to unify Canadians in the search for war criminals. Instead\, they provided evidence of a divided nation not yet sure how to demobilize after a world war. \nFor Canada\, the issue of how to respond to war criminals – whether that was the post-war military trials conducted based on crimes committed against Canadian servicemen or alleged war criminals that had fled justice to settle in Canada after the war – is a divisive subject. Politically\, judicially\, and publicly there was contention over what justice looked like. This talk will discuss these contentions and contextualize why this discord exists\, as well as ground these issues in the present day. \n\nDid you miss the live event? Watch Military Lecture: Complicated Justice below: \n \n\nAbout Katelyn Arac:\n \nKATELYN ARAC is a PhD candidate at Queen’s University and her research interests include Canadian political\, legal\, and social history in the 20th century. Supervised by Dr. Barrington Walker\, her research focuses on the immigration of war criminals into the country after the Second World War and how reactions to their entry have shaped the national project. The debate incited by the entry of war criminals into the country challenged the notion of Canadian identity and sparked debate between various ethnic communities. Concepts of multiculturalism and national identity were crucial concepts that the Commission of Inquiry on War Criminals was forced to address. \nOffered in partnership with the Laurier Centre for Military\, Strategic and Disarmament Studies.

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.
