Get Creative with a Full Month of Culture Days in Halton Hills HALTON HILLS, ON – Culture Days returns to Halton Hills from September 25 to October 25 with events and programs that celebrate our local vibrant arts and culture scene. Discover over 60 FREE activities, including self-guided and digital programming and in-person events designed to ensure the health and safety of all participants. “Culture Days has become a highly anticipated part of our fall calendar in Halton Hills,” said Mayor Rick Bonnette. “This year in addition to offering unique, creative experiences for everyone at all ages and ability levels, it is also an opportunity to come together and show support for our arts and culture community – a sector that has faced unprecedented challenges over the past six months.” The Town is also pleased to welcome the participation of the Honourable Elizabeth Dowdeswell, Lieutenant Governor of Ontario. The Lieutenant Governor plays an important role in promoting awareness and action related to fostering a sense of identity among the people of Ontario, and encouraging activities aimed at building more just and sustainable communities. Through her support of Culture Days, Ms. Dowdeswell aims to celebrate a thriving community of artists who contribute to the social fabric of the municipality and whose efforts are more essential than ever as we come through a global pandemic together. New this year in Culture Days, participants can tailor events to their own schedule with four categories of activities: self-guided, digital recordings, livestreams, and in-person.

Milton Historical Society announced today that a second dinner evening will be added to its second annual Gourmet and Spirits Dinner Evening because the first evening has been sold out. The second dinner evening will take place on Tuesday October 27, 2020, at 7 p.m. at La Toscana Restaurant. There are only 16 spaces available. The first dinner evening on October 20th is sold out. Hosted by local historian John McDonald and themed, Milton's Charming Homes & Kindred Spirits, the dinner will be an evening of intrigue as Mr. McDonald explains why, in some of Milton's oldest homes, "if these walls could talk." Following dinner, guests will retire to the original bar room of the 1864 Thompson House Hotel, located within the restaurant. As a result of physical distancing and other requirements associated with the Province of Ontario's Emergency Order, tickets will be limited. Tickets are $75 per person and can be reserved for two, four or six persons by emailing the Society at info@mitonhistoricalsociety.ca or by leaving a message for the Society at 905-875-4156.
