SUMMARY:Myseum Intersections 2021: Here and There: Storytelling Event
DESCRIPTION:A storytelling event to hear about the history of Care Work in Canada and listen to personal stories of migrant Care Workers. \nIn 2019\, Kwentong Bayan Collective and Caregiver Connections Education and Support Organization (CCESO) premiered their collaborative storytelling project\, Re-imagining Stories of Care Work at Myseum Intersections. The event received an overwhelmingly positive response from the community. \nFor Myseum Intersections 2021\, they will reunite and offer a new collaborative project called Here and There which is a prerecorded audio/visual/storytelling piece that will be live streamed on YouTube. \nJoin us to learn about the experiences of Migrant Care Workers who will share their stories. \nThese stories have been developed with the support of theatre artist\, Karen Ancheta and the Kwentong Bayan Collective have responded with an audio/visual installation. \nAs a nature of their work\, Migrant Workers already know how to socially distance – divide mind\, body\, heart\, and spirit – when they are separated from their loved ones for years to work abroad. Through the art of community storytelling\, we’ll explore the rhythms of this dual life; how love transcends time and space; and what we can all learn from this time of lockdown and revolution.

SUMMARY:North York Historical Society April 2021 Meeting: "Memories of North York" with Bill Aird
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Bill Aird\, VP of the NYHS Board \nWWI was followed by a rapid expansion of the city of Toronto. The growth of population north of the city limits quickly caused problems with the largely agricultural region north of the city. For a number of reasons which will become evident in this talk this led to the beginning of North York as a region separate from York County. \nNorth York had a unique history during the Great Depression. WWII was followed by a great urbanization; changing North York from a rural farming area to the current urban giant. You may be reminded of fond memories\, or things you didn’t remember or even things you didn’t know about North York. Enjoy!
