SUMMARY:Port Maitland\, “On the Grand” Historical Association Presents Guest Speaker Jacqueline Fisher\, Professional Archaeologist
DESCRIPTION:Port Maitland\, “On the Grand” Historical Association will hold its next membership meeting in the Disher Room of Dunnville Library on October 17 at 7:00 p.m. \nThe guest speaker will be Jacqueline Fisher – Professional Archaeologist\, BA\, MA. \nJacquie has been running her own company (FAC) for the last 25 years\, and has worked in the Dunnville area as well as Eastern and Southwestern Ontario. Her team has worked for the City of Windsor and for municipalities and individuals throughout Ontario. \nJacquie is the Vice-President of the Hamilton Branch of the Ontario Archeological Society\, which is hosting the annual OAS symposium this October 28 – 30th held at Royal Botanical Gardens and McMaster Innovation Park. \nJacquie will provide a PowerPoint presentation on some of the aspects of conducting commercial archaeology in the province and the types of sites that she has worked on through the years. \nThis from CTV Windsor (September 2013):\n“An archaeological dig in Lakeshore wrapped up Monday\, while construction on the Puce River (Tecumseh ON) bridge expansion along County Road 22 carries on.\nUp to 100\,000 objects were uncovered during the dig\, giving a glimpse back into Essex County history.\nJackie Fisher\, lead archaeologist\, says now that the digging and dusting are complete\, the project moves into the next phase.\n‘The actual detective puzzle figuring out is just beginning\,’ says Fisher. … It unveiled various items\, including pottery\, arrowheads\, wild bore [sic]tusks and axe pieces. Some things from other regions were found\, including the Caribbean.” \nThis leads to many questions.  For instance does Jackie have any explanation how items from the Caribbean ended up on the shore of Lake St. Clair?  Are these types of discoveries very common?

SUMMARY:Friends of the South Grey Museum Speaker Series 2022: Barbara Rusch\, "Two Queens\, Two Reigns: A Singular Purpose"
DESCRIPTION:The Friends of the South Grey Museum invite you to the Speakers Series 2022\, developed and hosted by Barry Penhale. As someone with an interest in the Museum and its programs\, you know how much we have all missed many activities during the COVID-19 pandemic\, including our series of talks. We decided to welcome our supporters back to a virtual series for 2022\, offered as webinars via Zoom with another eight programs\, occurring as usual on the third Wednesday of each month\, April to November\, at 7:00 pm. \nThe Museum being no longer available as a host site\, and with the continuing threat of COVID\, going virtual was the obvious solution. Moving to a virtual delivery brings with it some additional costs\, so we have made this a subscription series\, but we’ve kept the usual at-the-door cost as a household fee of $10 per session. We are grateful to the Municipality of Grey Highlands for continuing their support for the presenters. \n\nFittingly\, in the year of the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee\, the renowned collector of Victoriana\, Barbara Rusch\, will join us in a tribute to two record-setting monarchs. Over a span of some 40 years she has become widely-known for her dedication to the preservation of historically important objects. Today\, Barbara is a recognized Sherlock Holmes and Houdini expert\, as well as having assembled the largest collection of Queen Victoria artifacts in Canada. A recent Toronto Star feature article quoted her as saying: “That’s what I consider my mission in life: to resurrect those voices\, to tell their stories.” In some ways\, the reigns of Queen Elizabeth II\, now in its 70th record-setting year\, and that of her great-great-grandmother\, Queen Victoria have run along parallel lines. Both ascended to the throne at a tender age and lived to celebrate significant milestones\, enjoying happy marriages to their cousins. What few know is that both survived assassination attempts and home invasions within the palace walls. Barbara will reveal these and other little-known facts about these popular and long-lived royal women. Don’t miss this master storyteller whose reputation as a lively enthusiastic presenter has few equals. \n\nMany Sessions\, Your Choice \nHoping you will join us for another exciting series\, this time from the comfort of your home\, no uncomfortable folding chairs\, and no expenditure on gasoline! \nChoose which parts of the series you prefer.  Visit our web site for in-depth descriptions of The Sessions. \nFull Series of all eight sessions monthly April to November\nwith one free session discount\nfor $70\nOR\nHalf Series of four sessions monthly April to July\nfor $40\nOR\nHalf Series of four sessions monthly August to November\nfor $40 \n  \nBuy $70 Full Series (8 sessions) April to November \nBuy $40 Half Series (4 sessions) April to July \nBuy $40 Half Series (4 sessions) August to November

SUMMARY:National Trust Conference 2022
DESCRIPTION:National Trust Conference 2022\n(with Canadian Association of Heritage Professionals and the Indigenous Heritage Circle)\nThe Heritage Reset: Making Critical Choices \nAfter two years of virtual events\, the National Trust Conference 2022 (with the Canadian Association of Heritage Professionals and the Indigenous Heritage Circle) is back on the ground with an in-person event in Toronto\, October 20-22 (Chelsea Hotel). Join over 500 attendees at Canada’s largest gathering of the heritage places sector: from professionals (emerging and established)\, craftspeople and volunteers\, to developers\, planners\, heritage site operators\, academics\, and students. Connect with your peers or next employer at the trade show\, build your skills in dynamic sessions and workshops\, get behind the scenes at exciting Toronto projects\, and take part in the heritage reset discussion! \nSocietal shifts accelerated by the global pandemic have drawn into question many values\, structures\, and public policies in Canada\, including those guiding heritage conservation. Now is the time for realignment and concerted action. Combining learning sessions and goal setting discussions\, National Trust Conference 2022 will focus on three heritage sector renewal themes: \n\nSocial-Cultural Reset – Embracing a Fuller Story and Confronting Exclusion;\nEnvironmental Reset – Championing Heritage Conservation as Climate Action; and\nEconomic Reset – Overcoming Systemic Barriers to Reuse & Asserting Heritage as a Progressive Force\n\nYour health and safety are important to us. We are actively tracking the news around changes to public health regulations. We will adjust our plans and health protocols as necessary. \nDon’t miss this chance to see your peers and help set the heritage agenda in Toronto!

SUMMARY:Ontario Women’s History Network Annual Conference and AGM
DESCRIPTION:Ontario Women’s History Network Annual Conference and AGM\nOctober 21-22\, 2022\nHybrid conference: Online and in Ottawa\nHistorically\, war has been a profoundly gendered experience\, as traditional dichotomies put women securely on the “Homefront\,” as supporters\, caregivers and afterward\, as mourners of the dead. Much scholarship has reflected on the historical experiences both on the battlefield and the “Homefront\,” and we now know that these two cannot be neatly separated. Early historiography focused on the contention that war broke down gender norms\, even was liberating for women. While we are interested in continuing such discussions\, we are also hopeful of expanding and diversifying them by hearing about gendered experiences of war-related activities in Ontario. How did women manage new familial tensions\, take on new types of work\, remember those who were lost? In particular\, we seek to explore how war is now taught in schools\, how war is remembered and preserved through public history institutions and through commemoration\, and new insights\nfrom current academic research on these subjects. \nPossible topics include\, but are not limited to: \nTeaching War and Gender:\nExploring wartime roles and resistance\nMoving beyond traditional narratives of war \nPublic history and the presentation/preservation of wartime:\nPresenting and preserving war and gender at museums\nWomen’s role in commemorating the war\nThe role of archives in the documentation of war \nOriginal research on war-related activities:\nThe “Homefront”\nVolunteerism and the wars\nWartime and women's rights\nCollateral damage of war\nPost-war and demobilization\nAnti-war movements\nGendering patriotism\, nationalism\, and war narratives\nWar in popular culture \nWe are accepting proposals for individual papers\, panels\, and plenary sessions. Please submit a 250-word proposal by July 20\, 2022 to: alloydla@museumlondon.ca

SUMMARY:Riverdale Historical Society (Virtual): The 1852 Agricultural Exhibition and the Agricultural Association of Upper Canada with Ross Fair
DESCRIPTION:“Toronto was all bustle and excitement”: The 1852 Agricultural Exhibition and the Agricultural Association of Upper Canada\nAnother year’s Canadian National Exhibition has come and gone. But when did exhibitions become an annual tradition and who first organized them? To answer these questions\, the talk will centre on the Agricultural Association of Upper Canada (founded 1846) and its 1852 Provincial Agricultural Exhibition\, hosted in Toronto. Susanna Moodie was so impressed by the show that she wrote a chapter about it. But a successful exhibition was just one of the association’s ambitions that year and\, at the event\, the provincial government made a major announcement that has shaped government support of agriculture in Ontario ever since. \nDr. Ross Fair teaches in the Department of History at Toronto Metropolitan University (formerly Ryerson University). His study of agricultural societies\, Improving Upper Canada: Agricultural Leadership and State Formation\, 1791-1853\, will be published soon. He is currently writing a book on the failed attempts to encourage hemp cultivation in Upper and Lower Canada. \nTuesday\, October 25\, 2022\nAt 6:30 p.m. \nhttps://us06web.zoom.us/j/83409291542\nMeeting ID: 834 0929 1542 \nOne tap mobile\n+1 647 558 0588 Canada\n+1 647 374 4685 Canada
