SUMMARY:Culinary Historians of Canada (In-Person and Virtual): Naomi Duguid Talks About Her New Book\, The Miracle of Salt
DESCRIPTION:Award-winning cookbook author Naomi Duguid talks about her latest\, The Miracle of Salt\, a “mesmerizing mix of history and recipes.” \nAbout this event \nNaomi Duguid\, who’s taken food lovers to many corners of the globe\, now invites readers and cooks on a very different journey—a deep dive into the miracle of salt and its essential role in preserving\, fermenting\, and transforming food. \nDuguid will look at salt’s history and its impact on culture and cuisine across the globe. She’ll explain how salt — the chemical — works\, how it’s used to ferment and preserve\, and how that knowledge can be used to make basics like miso\, sauerkraut and basturma. She’ll talk about what to cook with salt-preserved ingredients like salt cod\, kimchi\, fish sauce and preserved lemons and how to create a “salt pantry” with enticing blends of salt and spices. Duguid will wrap up the talk by elaborating on the ways salt transforms everything it touches\, from vegetables\, soups\, mains\, pasta dishes\, to desserts. A Q&A will follow the talk.

SUMMARY:Mattawa Museum 2022 Annual General Meeting
DESCRIPTION:The annual general meeting (AGM) of the Mattawa Museum will be held on Thursday\, November 24\, 2022 at the Museum on 285 First Street beginning at 7pm. \nIt has been both an exciting and successful year for the Museum\, with a significant number of visitors\, an interesting and immensely popular traditional Indigenous canoe build on site during the summer\, the realization of several funding grants\, and the employment of an enthusiastic and youthful summer staff. \n“We are very proud of all that has been accomplished this year\,” says Judy Toupin\, Curator of the Museum. “It was without a doubt one of our best years ever\, and we want to build on that momentum.” \nThe AGM will highlight much of what has been achieved at the Museum during 2022 and will also present future opportunities and options that will allow for its continued growth and success. \n“There are about two hundred email subscribers of the Mattawa Museum and almost 1\,000 followers on our Museum Facebook page.” says Judy. “We want to continue to our wonderful momentum by having a membership drive.” \nOne of the specific areas of interest for us as a member of this community is supporting our local youth. We had one of the most amazing teams of young people this past summer and giving back is especially important to us. To that end\, as part of your paid Membership to the Museum\, a portion of funds collected will be given in the form of a scholarship/bursary to each high school in our community. \nWe see this as a win-win-win\, so let’s continue to support our community. Together we can grow and enhance the museum and increase its visitation so that it becomes an integral part of the many attractions in the Mattawa area. \nSnacks and refreshments will be served during the Museum’s AGM\, so please register if you plan to attend so that organizers can ensure that quantities are adequate. We look forward to seeing you there. To register for the Mattawa Museum AGM\, please contact us at: curator@mattawamuseum.ca or 705-744-5495

SUMMARY:Riverdale Historical Society (Virtual): Modest Hopes: Homes and Stories of Toronto's Workers by Leslie Valpy
DESCRIPTION:RHS welcomes Leslie Valpy\, a heritage conservationist practitioner and Don Loucks\, a Heritage Architect\, to speak about their recent book\, “Modest Hopes\, Homes and Stories of Toronto’s workers from the 1820s to the 1920s”\, which celebrates Toronto’s built heritage of row houses\, semis\, and cottages and the people who lived in them. \nToronto’s workers’ cottages are often characterized as being small\, cramped\, poorly built\, and in need of modernization or even demolition. But for the workers and their families who originally lived in them from the 1820s to the 1920s\, these houses were far from modest. Many had been driven off their ancestral farms or had left the crowded conditions of tenements in their home cities abroad. Once in Toronto\, many lived in unsanitary conditions in makeshift shanty-towns or cramped shared houses in downtown neighbourhoods such as The Ward. To then move to a self-contained cottage or rowhouse was the result of an unimaginably strong hope for the future and a commitment to family life. \nNote: this is a Zoom presentation. If you are not on our mail list\, send us your request via the “Contact RHS” page.

SUMMARY:Thunder Bay Museum Free Public Lecture (In Person and Virtual): Oula Seitsonen - Finnish-Canadian Homestead Research
DESCRIPTION:Please join the Thunder Bay Historical Museum Society for a lecture from Oula Seitsonen\, chair in Finnish Studies at Lakehead University\, 2022‑2023. This will be a in-person event that is free to view. The lecture will be broadcast live via ZOOM for those who cannot attend in-person and recorded and posted to the Museum’s YouTube at a later date.   \nCLICK HERE TO VIEW THE WEBINAR\nFinnish-Canadian homestead research in the footsteps of archaeologist Sakari Pälsi \nThis lecture describes ongoing contemporary archaeological research on the material heritage of Finnish-Canadian immigrants and on retracing the footsteps of Finnish archaeological pioneer Sakari Pälsi who traveled across Canada in 1927. In October 2022\, my Canadian colleagues and I carried out archaeological\, ethnographic\, and anthropological work at a Finnish homestead in Tarmola\, Gorham Township\, where the great-grandparents of my colleague Meaghan Peuramäki-Brown lived since 1924. This work will be the Canadian part of our cross-Atlantic co-operation: in tandem with the fieldwork at the Kainulainen homestead in Tarmola\, we will study their ancestral farm in eastern Finland. Material culture approach to recent past historical events can reveal new and unexpected perceptions of seemingly familiar subjects\, like everyday lives and foodways\, and even such unanticipated issues as folk magic and beliefs\, as suggested already by our preliminary work. Besides the archaeological work in Tarmola\, I have retraced the travels of famous Finnish archaeologist Sakari Pälsi and his wife across Canada 95 years ago; I have earlier followed Pälsi’s wide-ranging travels in Finland\, Russia\, and Mongolia. On the trip from Quebec to Vancouver Island and back Pälsi visited Finnish communities and homesteads\, logging sites\, bush camps\, and mines\, and documented the lifeways of immigrants and the landscapes that they lived in. Port Arthur\, the “great city of Finns”\, was one of Pälsi’s main destinations on his journey. I have revisited and re-documented most of the locations along Pälsi’s trail\, and also returned his photographs to the local museums along the way. Sakari Pälsi’s insightful ethnographic notes and photographs provide also relevant background material for our multidisciplinary work at the Kainulainen homestead in Tarmola. \nSpeaker Bio \nOula Seitsonen (Sakarin-Pentin Ilarin Oula) is a chair in Finnish Studies at Lakehead University\, 2022‑2023. He is an archaeologist and geographer at the University of Oulu\, Finland\, and his research interests cover a wide range of themes\, both temporally and geographically\, from the archaeology of early pastoralism in Fennoscandia (Sápmi)\, Mongolia\, and East Africa\, to traces of the 21st-century refugee crises. At Lakehead\, he is pursuing a project on the material heritage of Finnish immigrants. Focusing on the 1927 cross-Canada trip of Finnish archaeological pioneer Sakari Pälsi. \nFree Museum Admission during the event. Refreshments will be available.
