SUMMARY:From Convent to Museum: The Renovation Story
DESCRIPTION:The Institute of the Blessed Virgin Mary\, whose members are commonly known as the Sisters of Loretto\, is a Roman Catholic congregation founded in France in 1609. In 1847\, the Loretto Sisters arrived in Canada and by 1856 they had established a convent in Guelph\, located on “Catholic Hill” near to the Church of Our Lady Immaculate (built between 1875 and 1883\, designated as a basilica in 2014). \nThe Loretto Sisters opened the first Catholic school in the county and\, later\, founded a residential school that was the first boarding school for girls west of Toronto. Education was\, and continues to be\, a core mandate of the Sisters’ work. \nIn 1883\, two additional stone buildings were constructed on the property adjacent to the convent to accommodate the educational needs of Guelph’s growing community — St. Stanislaus School for boys (rebuilt in 1977) and St. Agnes School for girls (the original structure is still standing). Night classes were also offered to students who tended farms during the day. \nThe convent was expanded again in 1953 and the addition became Notre Dame High School. Loretto Academy and Notre Dame were joined in 1962 and renamed Bishop Macdonell Catholic High School. By 1995\, the student population had outgrown the site. The school was closed and the later additions were demolished in 2004. Although the original 1856 structure was preserved\, the convent remained vacant until 2008. \nGuelph Civic Museum began in the 1960s\, when members of the Guelph Historical Society started to collect artifacts\, which were displayed in store fronts and community centres. In Canada’s Centennial Year (1967)\, the Museum opened its first home in the horse stables\, where the Farmer’s Market is currently located. \nIn 1980\, the Museum moved to 6 Dublin Street South\, at the corner of Dublin Street and Waterloo Avenue. Situated along the first road into Guelph and at the centre of the city’s pre-railway business district\, the building was among the largest and earliest limestone structures in Guelph (before 1850). Originally operated as the Victorian Inn by William Armstrong\, over the years the building housed a store\, a school\, a lumber merchant’s office\, a boarding house and\, from 1931 to 1977\, the Knights of Columbus. \nIn 2000\, the Museum created the “Growing Up in Guelph Children’s Gallery” that attracted many more visitors and significantly increased the number of family memberships. By 2008\, the Museum had reached the full capacity of its Dublin Street location. The unoccupied Loretto Convent was an optimal new home for the Museum. \nAfter securing a long-term lease with the Catholic Diocese of Hamilton\, the City of Guelph began renovations to the convent. The extensive modifications included the restoration of the heritage staircase\, between the main and second floors\, and of the stained glass windows\, originally located in the chapel and that can now be seen in the Families Gallery. \nThis display highlights the transformation of the building from convent to museum and includes photographs and artifacts preserved and collected by the Museum. The Loretto Sisters’ story continues in the Loretto Gallery\, located on the third floor of the Museum.

SUMMARY:Needle Art Expressions: Canadian Embroiderers’ Guild\, Guelph
DESCRIPTION:In 1976\, a local group of Anglican women with an interest in making liturgical embroidery established ‘The St. James Embroiderers.’ They soon realized that the group needed more structure and to include other forms of needle work. \nIn spring of 1977\, with advice from the Canadian Embroiderers’ Guild\, London (a textile arts group)\, the first executive of the Canadian Embroiderers’ Guild\, Guelph (CEGG) was established. The CEGG’s vision was to build on the heritage of embroidery through excellence and creativity and its mission was to foster learning and growth of needle arts through teaching and mentoring. \nMembership in the CEEG has grown and remains strong in response to a variety of courses and programming. Among their achievements was the establishment in the early 1990s of an embroidery program for elementary students. The program broadened the reach of the CEGG to youth communities. Many of the participants were introduced to the needle arts for the first time. \nThe CEGG also contributed to The Scottish Diaspora Tapestry (2012-2014)\, a 300-panel tapestry that celebrates Scottish heritage and connects Scotland to its global diaspora. Of the 37 Scottish Canadian panels\, three were made by the CEGG\, including a depiction of John Galt and the settlement of Guelph\, Galt\, Stratford and Goderich. The tapestry has travelled internationally and is touring Scotland through 2019. \nCurrently in its 40th year\, the Canadian Embroiderers’ Guild\, Guelph is actively pursuing its mission.

SUMMARY:I STAND #InUnity
DESCRIPTION:Opening reception: Friday\, March 23\, 6:30 PM \nOf an estimated 4\,200 Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women (MMIW) in Canada\, only 1\,200 are recognized by the RCMP. On October 19\, 2017 hundreds of people from Guelph gathered to demonstrate against this disparity and to demand a healthier shared future. Together they formed a human medicine wheel\, in the colours of the four directions\, to communicate that MMIW is a national issue\, not just an Indigenous issue. \nThrough words and pictures\, this exhibition encourages viewers to explore this crisis and prompts them to respond to contemporary colonialism. The I STAND #InUnity Project is led by four Indigenous women in Guelph – Brittany Luby\, Kimberley Anderson\, Cara Wehkamp\, and Maria Shallard – with the support of ally and artistic consultant Peter Denton.

SUMMARY:Guelph Pride 2018: Celebrating 15 Years
DESCRIPTION:In 2018\, Guelph Pride celebrates 15 years of LGBT2Q+ culture and community in Guelph and Wellington County. Guelph Museums celebrates this significant moment through an exhibition that advocates for accessibility\, inclusivity and historical knowledge among all LGBT2Q+ identified persons and their allies. \nOrganized in timelines\, we consider LGBT2Q+ human rights\, the emergence of the Pride movement and the adoption of the\nrainbow as a signifier of diversity and inclusion\, and Guelph’s own LGBT2Q+ stories. \nCo-presented by Guelph Pride\, Guelph Museums\, and the Guelph Arts Council\, this installation includes contemporary artworks by local LGBT2Q+ artists and allies\, who offer personalized narratives through a broad range of creative forms. \nGuelph Museums offers this installation in support of all LGBT2Q+ identified people; however\, we cannot interpret this history without acknowledging the intersectional complexities of lived experiences. While this installation aspires to advance knowledge and acceptance among all people\, it is just one step in the long journey toward true equity. \n \nThe various communities that fall under the Pride umbrella are illustrated here by the extended acronym\, LGBTTQQIAAP2S\, and by the identifiers that each character represents. The introductory text to this installation uses LGBT2Q+ as a shortened but contemporary and all-encompassing acronym. In the historical timeline\, the various acronyms and terminologies used reflect the specific communities involved in or impacted by each event.

SUMMARY:Unmentionables and Under Things
DESCRIPTION:Throughout the twentieth century\, the design of undergarments offered a mix of durability\, comfort\, and aesthetic appeal. As hemlines rose\, women had new choices in stockings\, knickerbockers\, girdles\, and brassieres. Men’s smalls led to long johns and eventually to the jock strap that coincided with the invention of the bicycle. \nUndergarments\, originally unseen and unmentionable\, became functional\, fashionable\, and affordable. The undergarment industry boomed and competition forced manufacturers to innovative and market their designs to the public. \nUnderwear advertising first appeared in the 1910s. Early advertisements emphasized durability and comfort over fashion. By the end of the decade\, bloomers gained popularity with ‘Gibson Girls\,’ who enjoyed pursuits such\nas cycling and tennis. The ‘Gibson Girl’ was an ideal of feminine beauty and independence\, named for the artist Charles Dana Gibson (1867-1944) whose figurative drawings inspired the ‘look.’ This new female athleticism\,\ncoupled with a metal shortage during the First World War\, helped push the prevailing corset out of style. In the 1920s\, undergarment manufacturers produced flexible and supportive materials and designs that became the\nstandard for women. \nThe corset\, an undergarment worn by both men and women from the 16th century (some say even earlier) to the turn of the 19th century\, came back in the 1930s. The modern girdle marketed solely to women shaped the waist\nlike a corset but provided support rather than constriction. In 1934 Arthur Kneibler\, an executive and designer at the Wisconsin hosiery company\, introduced a new kind of snug\, legless underwear for men\, establishing the\nboxers-versus-briefs phenomenon that persists today. \nDuring the 1950s and 1960s\, women’s underwear became both fashionable and simplified\, emphasizing the attributes of the female form. Christian Dior’s ‘New Look’ (first presented in 1947) featured shaped\, push-up\, and\nstrapless bras that dominated fashion for decades. Panties and pantyhose replaced old-fashioned girdles\, garters\, and stockings. \nSex appeal\, marketed to both men and women\, became the focus of advertising and sales for underwear in the 1970s and 1980s. Although some women shed their bras as a feminist political statement in the seventies\, underwear in the eighties took a romantic turn\, bedecked with lace and ruffles. In the last decades of the twentieth century\, renewed interests in health and fitness inspired ‘active wear’ for everybody.

SUMMARY:Brewing Changes Guelph
DESCRIPTION:Label illustration and design: Lind Design \nBrewing Changes Guelph examines the social and economic importance of brewing beer in the Royal City and the changes brought about by the rise\, fall and resurrection of Guelph breweries. Whether one has worked in the brewing industry or has never tasted beer before\, visitors will learn how brewing has benefitted and continues to benefit our city. \nThe story begins with whiskey\, early independent innkeepers and entrepreneurs\, includes English immigrant brewers who established a thriving commercial industry\, and then suddenly ends in the late 1930s when Guelph was left without a single brewery for nearly fifty years. Key events in the 1970s and 1980s\, and the visionary thinking of several men and women\, led to the resurrection of brewing in Guelph in 1985. \nThis exhibition focuses on the impact of changes in production\, transportation\, marketing\, gender and policy in Guelph\, positioned within current brewing trends in Ontario\, across Canada and around the world. Guest curated by Eric Payseur\, Brewing Changes Guelph is as much about the present and future of brewing in Guelph as it is about its illustrious past.

SUMMARY:Coming Home: First World War at 100 Years
DESCRIPTION:November 11\, 1918 at 11:00 a.m. marked the profound but symbolic end to the four-year conflict on the Western Front. After the last gun sounded\, an eerie quiet must have greeted the soldiers along the front lines. The world was finally ready for peace. \nIn Guelph\, people celebrated the end of the First World War but grieved the loss of over 250 local men and women who died in the conflict. Families looked forward to their loved ones returning home to restart lives put on hold by war. Many soldiers remained overseas as “troops of occupation.” Others had to wait for available transport; some troops waited over a year to return home. \nThe trauma of the war impacted those who served overseas in countless ways. Many needed assistance to reintegrate into their civilian lives. In Guelph\, the Ontario Reformatory became the Speedwell Military Convalescent Hospital\, established to rehabilitate\, reemploy\, and reeducate veterans. The hospital operated from 1917 to 1921. \nWoodland Farm\, near the corner of Niska and Whitelaw Roads\, became Vimy Ridge Farm. Operated by the War Veterans Welfare Commission between 1923 and 1926\, the farm gave injured veterans a place where “they could work as they were able\, keeping them productive and dignified while readying them for regular employment.” \nThrough the story of Sergeant Duncan Robert Irvine\, a Guelphite who came home\, this installation marks the 100th anniversary of the end of the Great War. Let us never forget.

SUMMARY:Winter Wonderful: The Game of Carpet Ball
DESCRIPTION:During the cold winter months\, both children and adults engage in seasonal outdoor activities\, such as hockey or tobogganing. Winter evenings are often spent indoors\, playing board games or watching movies. A hundred years ago\, the game of carpet ball was a popular winter sport\, played inside of course! \nSimilar in gameplay to curling and bowling\, carpet ball was especially popular in Canada during the late 19th and early 20th centuries\, but the game has existed for thousands of years. (Bowling dates to ancient Egypt in 5200 B.C.) In carpet ball\, the intricately designed balls were rolled — not thrown — down a mat or carpet\, with the goal of rolling the ball as close as possible to the small white ball\, called the “jack\,” in the middle of the room. \nInvented in Scotland\, carpet ball became especially popular in England and Canada at the beginning of the 20th century. Leagues and clubs were founded so that youth and adults could play recreationally\, as well as competitively. There was even a league in Guelph in the early 1900s. \nAlthough carpet ball is not as popular today\, the game is still played all over the world. Present day clubs exist across England and there has recently been a carpet ball revival at youth summer camps in North America. Antique carpet balls have also become popular collector items\, for private collectors and museums alike.

SUMMARY:Decolonizing Guelph's Founding Story
DESCRIPTION:Guelph Museums is in the process of decolonization through the restructuring of our colonialist framework and by collaborating meaningfully with First Nations\, Inuit and Métis Peoples. We are committed to the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s Calls to Action and we strive to initiate dialogues and create safe spaces for truth telling. These guiding principles inform all that we do at Guelph Museums. \n\nIn the 1850s and 1860s\, provincial and university-based museums were created across Upper Canada; however\, after Confederation in 1867\, the government began to recognize the value of national collections in encouraging exploration and resource development—effectively tools of colonization. During this period the National Museums of Canada were established including the National Museum of Man (1856)\, the National Gallery of Canada (1880)\, and the Canadian Museum of Nature (1905)\, among others. \nCanada’s centennial in 1967 significantly increased public interest in Canadian heritage and was a pivotal moment in the growth of the museum sector. In 1968\, the National Museums Act and the National Museums of Canada Corporation focused on strengthening the role of all Canadian museums and establishing the government’s intentions for their future management and funding. \nIt was in this milieu that the Guelph Civic Museum was created to preserve and share this city’s local history. Since then\, Guelph’s founding story has been told through the narrative of the Canada Company\, a colonization company that was chartered in 1825 and remained in operation until it sold its last parcel of land in the 1950s. Founded by John Galt (1779–1839)\, who became its first Superintendent\, the Canada Company was responsible for colonizing over two million acres of land on the shores of Lake Huron\, which became known as the Huron Tract. Galt arrived in Upper Canada in 1825\, founded the towns of Guelph and Goderich in 1827\, built a road between these “instant cities” in 1828\, and was recalled to Britain by May of 1829. \nThis version of our founding story implied that Galt and the Canada Company settled a vast and unpopulated wilderness and negated\, by omission\, the rich history of the Original Peoples who have lived on these lands for millennia\, as well as the atrocities enacted upon them by the same mechanisms of colonization that led to the establishment of our city and of this museum.

SUMMARY:Indigenizing Galt
DESCRIPTION:Guelph Civic Museum was established in the 1960s to preserve and share this city’s local history. Since then\, our founding story has been told through the narrative of the Canada Company.

This version of our founding story implies that Galt established Guelph on unpopulated land and negated\, by omission\, the local history of the Original Peoples. \nIndigenizing Galt includes a local history timeline which documents the actions of government\, of Mohawk leaders Thayendanegea (Joseph Brant\, 1743–1807) and Ahyonwaeghs (John Brant\, 1794–1832)\, and of Guelph’s founder John Galt (1779–1839)\, which continue to inform our present-day civic narrative. \nThe case also includes artifacts which until recently\, the Museum’s City Gallery (located on the 3rd floor) displayed as part of Guelph’s founding story\, told through a colonial narrative\, repositioned and their stories extended to further our collective learning.

SUMMARY:Lacrosse: The Creator's Game
DESCRIPTION:Dewa’áo’:gajíhgwa’e’ is the Cayuga Nation word for lacrosse\, which has multiple meanings: “they play with webbed sticks” and “to throw or pass the ball” and “hitting their hips. \nLacrosse was gifted to the Haudenosaunee Peoples (Cayuga\, Mohawk\, Oneida\, Onondaga\, and Seneca) from the Creator at the time of Creation. Other Indigenous Nations have their own Creation stories\, as well as different stories about how the game of lacrosse came to be. Today\, many variations of the game are played across Nations. \nIn the Haudenosaunee Creation story\, there was a place that lived above the clouds called Sky World. This land looked very much like our own\, where plants\, trees and people lived. The Chief of Sky World took care of the Tree of Light. Sky Chief and his wife\, Sky Woman\, were expecting a child. \nSky Woman was curious about the herbs that grew beneath the Tree of Light. Noticing a hole under the roots of the tree\, she leaned in to look closer and fell through\, towards the vast waters below. The Geese saw Sky Woman falling and they flew up to catch her. The Geese placed Sky Woman upon the Great Turtle’s back. \nSky Woman had the power to create land. She asked the animals if there was dirt. “Yes\,” they said\, “but far beneath the waters.” So the Beaver\, the Otter and the Muskrat dived into the water to retrieve some earth for Sky Woman. At last\, the Muskrat’s body surfaced with dirt clutched in his paw. Sky Woman made circular motions on the Turtle’s back with the dirt and began to dance. As she danced\, the earth grew. This is how North America became known as Turtle Island. \nSky Woman gave birth to a baby girl. Her daughter grew\, came of age\, and mysteriously became pregnant with twins. They fought furiously in her womb. The Creator – called the Good Minded twin – was born. His brother – the Bad Minded twin – left their mother’s body through her armpit\, killing her. The mother was buried into the earth\, which is why earth is called Mother Earth. \nSky Woman raised the twins and taught them the traditions of Sky World. One way to settle disputes was to play the game of Dewa’áo’:gajíhgwa’e’ (lacrosse). The twins competed to see who would “win the world.” They played for six days. The Bad Minded twin grew impatient and he tried to end his brother with a spear. The Creator (the Good Minded twin) subdued his brother with a deer’s antler. \nThe Creator said that fighting is not the way of the Good Mind. He said that lacrosse would be the way to settle all disputes. He very much enjoyed the sport and hoped the Peoples would play for his entertainment.

SUMMARY:Konnón:kwe
DESCRIPTION:Image: Amanda Strong\, How to Steal a Canoe\, 2015 (still from stop-motion animation) \nKonnón:kwe\, a Kanyen’kéha (Mohawk) word signifying “three or more women\,” speaks to the power of collective agency by Indigenous women artists. Themes of wellness\, community\, and environmental justice weave historic artifacts and contemporary fine art into an exhibition that invites visitors to consider Indigenous futurities in the local context. \nAs leaders who have held their ground though the centuries\, Indigenous women continue to shape wellness and self-determination in their homelands. Konnón:kwe is an exhibition of strength inherent in connection to land and people; it is the power of women’s responsibilities. Indigenous women artists in the Konnón:kwe exhibition reflect such leadership through multiple forms of expression including painting\, beadwork\, photography\, film\, storytelling and performance art. Together the works of artists including Amanda Strong\, Shelley Niro\, Christi Belcourt\, Nadya Kwandibens\, Tenille Campbell and the Kika’ige Historical Society evoke a conversation that begins among them and extends outwards to museum visitors. \nThe exhibition will engage the visiting public in conversation about the transformative possibilities when women of compelling Indigenous agency come together. \nKonnón:kwe is co-curated by Kim Anderson\, Chelsea Brant\, Brittany Luby\, and Cara Wehkamp\, a “three or more” collective of Indigenous women. \nThis exhibition runs concurrently with “Indianized” by Naomi Smith.

Both the exhibition and the performance will question Galt’s positionality in the context of our local Indigenous history and the impact of colonization that continues to shape Guelph today. \nFeaturing works by Hunter Anderson\, Jasmine Canaviri\, Shirin Divanbeigi\, Michel Dumont\, Ted Fullerton and Paul Shilling\, Denise Holland\, Alexandra Hong\, Sheraz Khan and Will Pemulis\, Cody Houle\, Alex Jacobs-Blum\, Noni Kaur\, Taras Lachowsky\, Justin Langille\, Monique Martin\, Giniw Paradis\, Michelle Peraza\, and Carolyn Riddell. \n\nGALT 240\n2019 marks the 240th birthday of John Galt\, colonist and founder of Guelph. Take part in a series of events that reimagine our city today and in the future. \nArt As Activism: Truth\, Survivance\, and Resilience (exhibit) – August 2 to December 1 \nJohn Galt and the Instant City– August 2 \nJohn Galt Day: Market Square & Guelph Civic Museum Concert – August 3 \nCommunity Tea– November 3 \nJohn Galt and the Instant City – November 8 & 9 \nFunded in part by the Ontario Cultural Attractions Fund and the Musagetes Fund\, a grant from the Guelph Community Foundation.

SUMMARY:Into the Light: Eugenics and Education in Southern Ontario
DESCRIPTION:Content warning: The exhibition Into the Light: Eugenics and Education in Southern Ontario includes content that some visitors may find offensive and/or traumatizing. Guelph Museums aims to provide open spaces for the sharing and understanding of all histories and lived experiences. We ask that visitors help to create an atmosphere of mutual respect and sensitivity.\nInto the Light examines local histories and ongoing legacies of racial “betterment” thinking in Southern Ontario that de-humanized and disappeared those who did not fit the normative middle-class lives of white\, able-bodied settlers. \nIn the early to mid 20th century\, eugenics (race improvement through heredity) was taught in a number of universities throughout Southern Ontario\, including Macdonald Institute and the Ontario Agricultural College\, two of the three founding colleges that formed the University of Guelph. Educational institutions played a significant role in the eugenics movement by perpetuating destructive ideas that targeted Indigenous\, Black\, and other racialized populations\, poor\, and disabled people for segregation in institutions\, cultural assimilation and sterilization. \nWhile eugenics sought to eradicate those deemed as “unfit\,” this exhibition centres the voices of members of affected communities who continue to work to prevent institutional brutality\, oppose colonialism\, reject ableism\, and foster social justice. \nInto the Light is co-curated by Mona Stonefish\, Peter Park\, Dolleen Tisawii’ashii Manning\, Evadne Kelly\, Seika Boye and Sky Stonefish. This exhibition of artistic\, sensory\, and material expressions of memory aims to bring one of Guelph’s dark secrets\, as well as stories of survival\, out of the shadows and into the light. \nInto the Light: Eugenics and Education in Southern Ontario is co-presented by Guelph Museums\, Re•Vision: The Centre for Art and Social Justice\, Bodies in Translation: Activist Art\, Technology and Access to Life\, and Respecting Rights\, Arch Disability Law. \n\n		\n		\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n		\n\n\nInto the Light Access Guide – Accessible PDF\nPublic events\, guided tours and further learning opportunities\nInto the Light Opening Reception – ASL Vlog Invitation\nFriday\, September 27\, 2019 – 6 p.m. – Free admission \nRemarks\, performances and reception.

The vision\, to provide access to emerging inclusive or adaptive technology and design to artists of all disciplines and abilities\, will be illustrated in the upcoming retrospective: VibraFusionLab: Bridging Practices in Accessibility\, Art and Communication. Guelph Museums is proud to host this immersive exhibition\, which will feature educational ephemera in the Commons Research Centre\, and works by seven artists involved in the residency program: Marla Hlady; Gordon Monahan; Lindsay Fisher; Alison O’Daniel; Ellen Moffat; Lynx Sainte-Marie; and David Bobier. The seven artists in the exhibition self-identify as either abled or disabled and all have been affiliated with VibraFusionLab over the past 3-4 years. \nThe works specialize in the exploration of “vibrotactility” in technology\, investigating it as a creative medium\, with a capacity to combine visual\, audio and tactile elements into a highly emotional and sensorial art practice. Viewers can expect wearable devices\, and new approaches to art-making that champion the senses beyond vision and hearing\, to build new methods of communication and language.

SUMMARY:Rotary in Guelph 1920–2020: 100 Years of Service Above Self
DESCRIPTION:Image: Rotarians of Guelph\, 1921 \nThe Beginning of Rotary in Guelph:\nOn February 23\, 1920\, 25 local business leaders hosted a meeting to organize a Rotary Club in Guelph. Under the direction of Alex Stewart\, the club held its Charter Night on April 9\, 1920 at the Royal Canadian Café. \nThe Rotary Club of Guelph has sponsored nine other Clubs in Guelph and the surrounding the region: Kitchener (1922)\, Orangeville (1936)\, Acton (1947)\, Drayton (1950)\, Georgetown (1955)\, Fergus (1966)\, Guelph Wellington (1986)\, Guelph Trillium (1995)\, and Guelph South (2003).\nEstablished in 1988\, the Rotary Club of Guelph Charitable Foundation is mandated “to solicit\, manage and allocate funds to support long term projects\, which enhance the quality of life in our community.” \nMembership in Rotary opened to women in 1989. Today\, approximately half of local Rotarians are women and female presidents lead three of the four local clubs. \nOver the past 100 years\, Rotary Guelph has realized many community projects and initiatives. One hundred percent of all profits from Rotary fundraising events go toward projects that help people in and beyond Guelph.

SUMMARY:Every Child Matters
DESCRIPTION:Acknowledging the legacy of Canada’s Residential School system and its impact on Indigenous communities\, past\, present and future. \nWhat is Residential School? \nThe term “Residential School” refers to the education system that forced Indigenous children into mainstream “Canadian” ways of living. The practice removed Indigenous children from their families\, languages\, customs\, and traditional teachings. \nThere were 139 Indian residential schools funded and operated by the federal government. Opened in 1828 and located only 50 kilometres from Guelph\, the Mohawk Institute Residential School was the first and longest continually operated residential school in Canada. It closed in 1970\, after 142 years. \nThe Orange Shirt Story \nPhyllis Webstad (Stswecem’c Xgat’tem First Nation) started the Orange Shirt Society in 2013 based on her experience at the St. Joseph Mission Residential School in Williams Lake\, British Columbia. Phyllis grew up on Dog Creek Reservation with her grandmother. In 1973\, at six years old\, Phyllis was to attend the local residential school. Her grandmother purchased a beautiful orange shirt for her to wear on the first day. Phyllis was nervous and excited\, as she was not sure what to expect. Upon arriving to the St. Joseph Mission Residential School in her brand new orange shirt\, it was stripped from her body never to be returned. \n“The color orange has always reminded me of that and how my feelings didn’t matter\, how no one cared and how I felt like I was worth nothing. All of us little children were crying and no one cared.” \n– Phyllis Webstad \nThe Orange Shirt Society \nThe Orange Shirt Society witnesses and honours the healing journey of residential school survivors and their families. The society aims to create conversations about the residential school system\, among all Canadians. Their message is simple: Every Child Matters. \nOrange Shirt Day \nAnnually on September 30\, we wear orange shirts to commemorate the survivors of residential school.   It was the time of year when children were taken from their homes and sent to residential schools. Today\, we must talk about anti-racism and anti-bullying. Let’s come together in the spirit of reconciliation and hope for generations of children to come. \nFor more information visit: www.orangeshirtday.org \nPhyllis Webstad\, author of The Orange Shirt Story\, wears a 2019 Orange Shirt Day T-shirt\, designed by Vinita Rathod\, a grade twelve student from Richmond\, B.C.

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.
