Katelyn Bedard Bone Marrow Association and Windsor Blood Donor Clinic ask you to Donate Blood and/or Get Swabbed! at their joint event on Saturday, April 28 from 8am to 12Noon at the Windsor Blood Donor Clinic, 3909 Grand Marais Rd E.
Each year on the last Saturday in April practitioners of traditional book related crafts including letterpress printers, printmakers, paper makers and hand bookbinders gather at the Grimsby Public Art Gallery to present their work to the public, renew connections with colleagues and share their expertise with the next generation of artists and artisans.
Started in 1979, Wayzgoose was a small gathering of friends and colleagues that attracted about 300 visitors. Since then it has grown into an eagerly awaited annual event with an attendance of between 2000 and 2500 people. Participants and visitors come from across Ontario, from Quebec and from the North Eastern states. There are also often a few travelers from Europe, Japan and across the U.S. who find their way to Grimsby to enjoy and appreciate this fascinating craft.
Wayzgoose provides a wonderful opportunity to experience first-hand the traditions that turned us into a literate society. This annual book arts fair brings together private presses from all across Canada and the United States representing the renewal of old friendships, the beginning of new ones, and the appreciation for handmade book and paper arts.
Demonstrations and displays of paper making, book binding, calligraphy, paper marbling, and book making celebrates the love of fine art, fine craft, and stories.

We all have stories to share. You may have heard some of ours. But now, we want to hear yours.
Dialogue is a powerful mode of conversation that stimulates great thoughts, ideas, and ultimately can lead to positive change. Dialogue can occur between family, friends, co-workers, and strangers. And it can occur between people who do not share the same experiences, perspectives, or ideas. The Olde Gaol Museum and the Kawartha Lakes Historical Society want to support conversation in our community and offer a place for dialogue about the past, present, and future.
We invite you to join us at 50 Victoria Avenue North, Lindsay on May 16, 2018 at 10AM.
Have conversations. Connect with your heritage. Learn from the stories of others. Reminisce about days gone by. Explore our shared history. Come together and find your place within the museum.
