Ontario Culture Days is turning 10, so we're hosting a party!

Join us on September 27 from 5 to 9 p.m. to kickoff Culture Days weekend at Guelph Civic Museum.

Explore the Museum's collections and new fall exhibitions while you search for answers to scavenger hunt clues, hear storyteller, Brad Woods, spin some tales with Mike Janzen and Jeff Bersche, eat a slice of cake, and take home a special loot bag at the end of the night to inspire creativity and encourage health, and wellness for you and the planet!

This event coincides with the opening reception of new fall exhibitions, “Bridging Practices in Accessibility, Art, and Communications” and “Into the Light: Eugenics and Education in Southern Ontario”. Opening remarks at 6 p.m.

Performances by Brad Woods, Mike Janzen, and Jeff Bersche at 7 p.m. and 8 p.m.
