SUMMARY:Friends of the South Grey Museum Speaker Series 2022: Aly Boltman\, "Erasing Erasure: The Intersection of History and Social Justice at Potter’s Field"
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\nJoin local history enthusiast Aly Boltman to hear about an unlikely\, three-year journey that began with a dead-of-winter\, candle-lit cemetery tour and ended with an award-winning\, community-supported social justice project that unearthed the histories and dignity of more than 1\,000 citizens all but forgotten in Owen Sound’s Greenwood Cemetery. \nAly has been living in Grey County for the past 19 years where she has served a number of professional roles in the arts and philanthropy sectors. Her writing has been featured in the Globe & Mail\, Owen Sound Sun Times\, The Architectural Conservancy of Ontario\, the Ontario Museum Association and other publications. Ms. Boltman was recently the recipient of the YMCA’s Peace Medallion for her work leading the Potter’s Field Memorial Steering Committee\, resulting in the new Potter’s Field Memorial at Greenwood Cemetery in Owen Sound\, Ontario. \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:Museum of Lennox and Addington (Virtual): The Rural Diary Archive: Transcribing Daily Life in Eastern Ontario
DESCRIPTION:The Rural Diary Archive website (https://ruraldiaries.lib.uoguelph.ca/) brings together the work of over 200 diarists (1820-1960) across Ontario. It encourages users to learn about the authors\, easily search fully transcribed diaries in the collection and help transcribe handwritten ones. This presentation explores several Eastern Ontario diaries in the collection\, the nature of diary writing\, and the ways one can use diaries for your own research. Dr. Catherine Wilson will share some examples from her forthcoming book Being Neighbours: Cooperative Work and Rural Culture\, 1830-1960. \nCatharine’s interest in rural and family history began while growing up in Grenville County where her Loyalist and Irish ancestors settled. To celebrate 1967\, her parents built a log cabin in their basement. Inspired by the family heirlooms displayed there\, she’s been fascinated with the history of daily life ever since. Much of her scholarship has included genealogical research and is recognized for employing under-utilized sources such as diaries and innovative methods that revise historical interpretations. Her early work focused on Irish immigration\, pioneer settlement and farm tenancy. Her current SSHRC-funded project explores reciprocal work bees (barn raising\, quilting\, and threshing bees\, etc.) using Ontario farm diaries. She explores the creation\, maintenance and definition of neighborhood and its practical workings. She teaches Canadian History\, Social History\, and Rural History to undergraduates and graduates at the University of Guelph. She is also the Redelmeier Professor in Rural History\, Coordinator of the speakers’ series The Rural History Roundtable\, Founder and Director of the Rural Diary Archive website\, and a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada.

SUMMARY:Myseum of Toronto: Confinement and Contagion: Health and Harm Reduction Inside of Canadian Prisons – Informational Workshop
DESCRIPTION:This workshop\, led by Sena Hussain and Prisoners with HIV/AIDS Support Action Network (PASAN)\, will explore the impacts of unequal access to health care and harm reduction measures that prisoners face across Turtle Island. We will also look at how COVID-19 has stressed the carceral system in unprecedented ways and how this pandemic has manifested in creating great harm to people inside. A discussion of an article in Cell Count\, a health and harm reduction resource for prisoners\, will then take place to look at the experiences and mindset of someone who has been carrying out a life sentence to create further understanding of the prison experience. Participants will discuss ways that people on the outside can be in solidarity with those fighting for their rights on the inside.

SUMMARY:Archives of Ontario Talk (Virtual): Métis Artist Tracey-Mae Chambers’ Work of Hope and Healing
DESCRIPTION:It’s Archives Awareness Week in Ontario! \nJoin the Archives of Ontario as they welcome Métis artist Tracey-Mae Chambers for a live\, virtual event. This artist talk will take place from noon to 1pm EST on Thursday\, April 7. Register at www.eventbrite.ca/e/virtual-talk-with-tracey-mae-chambers-tickets-272953600567. \nChambers created a site-specific artwork at the Archives of Ontario on February 28\, 2022. The piece is part of Chambers’ larger #hopeandhealingcanada project. Seeking to reconnect people and their environments in the face of the pandemic\, the artist has worked with dozens of cultural and public institutions nationwide—and the Archives of Ontario is the first provincial archives to take part. Each of Tracey-Mae Chambers’ installations is unique. Created out of countless metres of fibrous red yarn\, the works function as a technology of decolonization\, which Chambers presents as a step towards reconciliation. By placing her installations in and on venues that traditionally represent colonial worldviews\, Chambers breaches the boundaries of spaces historically closed to Indigenous perspectives. \nYou can view Chambers’ artwork until April 11\, 2022 at the Archives of Ontario\, located at 134 Ian MacDonald Blvd. on York University’s Keele Campus in Toronto. From outside the building\, you can also view the installation via the window on the south side of the building\, across from York University subway station.

SUMMARY:UEL Association of Canada - Governor Simcoe Branch (Virtual): April 2022 Meeting

One of the gang\, Aaron Doan\, was my 4th great-grandfather and my first Loyalist ancestor. \nJanet Hodgkins\, UE\, is proud to be descended from seven United Empire Loyalists. She belongs to the Colonel John Butler (Niagara) Branch where she is a Director and the Programme Chair. She is also the long-time president of the Wainfleet Historical Society.
