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:Witnessing War
DESCRIPTION:Banner: Lyn Westfall\, The Poppy and the Wellington\, 2016 (acrylic on canvas\, detail) \nThis year marks 150 years since the birth of Lt. Col. John McCrae (1872-1918). An esteemed doctor\, soldier and poet\, McCrae is remembered for his wartime poem “In Flanders Fields\,” which he wrote from the trenches near Ypres\, Belgium\, on 3 May 1915. \nMcCrae was a keen observer of the people and places he visited. In addition to his letters and poetry\,\nhe made many sketches. Over his lifetime\, he wrote dozens of poems and made innumerable drawings. \nAlthough the poet McCrae is often celebrated\, Witnessing War takes a closer look at his drawings\, in graphite and ink\, many of which are held in Guelph Museums’ collection. When considered together\, McCrae’s poems and drawings offer an impression of his inner solitude. \n\n\n\n	“Pickerel Island Ahmic Lake”\, 1892\, John McCrae\, Guelph Museums M1996X.1.1.22 \n\n\n	“Telephone Poles”\, 1890\, John McCrae\, Guelph Museums M1996X.21.1 \n\n\n	"Tarpaulin Cove"\, 1892\, John McCrae\, Guelph Museums M1996.1.1.17 \n\n\n\n\nShaped and inspired by McCrae’s creative expressions\, Witnessing War features drawings\, paintings and sculptures by local and national artists\, spanning 100 years of art as a salve to war. \nThe exhibition includes art works made in response to the six global conflicts in which Canada has fought: South African War (1899-1902)\, First World War (1914-1918)\, Second World War (1939-1945)\, Korean War (1950-1953)\, Persian Gulf War (1990-1991)\, and Afghanistan War (2001-2014). \nWitnessing War also considers responsive works by artists with connections to Guelph and the surrounding region\, who explore themes of human conflict in their art. \n\nWatch History Bites: Is Art a Salve to War? with with contemporary artists Anong Migwans Beam\, Anique Jordan\, Barbara Todd\, and Lyn Westfall\, whose work is featured in this exhibition:
