Join us for a day of free programming at the OAG, celebrating our current exhibition: Faith Fyles: In Full Bloom!
This FREE event is open to everyone – registration is required for the screening and panel discussion, and all are welcome!
Drop in to the Studio for a Special Edition Creative Sunday to create quilled flower craft activity between 10 AM – 2 PM – perfect for all ages and inspired by materials and themes found in the exhibition.
Then, take a closer look at some of the artefacts and their stories in the exhibition with co-curator Dr. Cindy Stelmackowich during a curatorial tour focused on the material cultures of science.
After this, learn more about the work of Marie-Jeanne Musiol during a spot talk with the artist in the exhibition!
In the afternoon, join us for a screening of We Lend a Hand: The Forgotten Story of Ontario Farmerettes, followed by a thought-provoking panel discussion on the topic of Women in Agriculture. Moderated by Robin Etherington, this panel will feature artist historian Dr. Stacey Barker, artist Barbara Brown, and Roots and Shoots farm owner and manager Jessica Weatherhead.
