The Archive of Missing Things – Morrin Centre
Jun 12 – Jun 16 all day

Come experience The Archive of Missing Things, part live performance and part contemplative game, in the Morrin Centre’s exquisite Victorian library. Equipped with an iPad and a headset, you’ll explore a maze-like archive in search of the secret at its centre, guided by clues in a live performance happening discreetly around you. Created by Halifax’s acclaimed Zuppa Theatre with award-winning writer Kate Cayley, this performance, alongside a digital book and game, presents a mystery that is beautiful, wistful… and sometimes even a little eerie.

This project is made possible thanks to the support of the Canada Council for the Arts, Arts Nova Scotia, and Conseil des arts et des lettres du Québec.

*Please visit the Morrin Centre Website for times and more information: https://www.morrin.org/en/archive-of-missing-things/?mc_cid=0712a66ce4&mc_eid=783d4e7481

Prenatal Information Meetings
Jun 13 @ 6:30 PM – 8:45 PM

Birthing a child is an historic family occasion. It can be a very emotional, awesome and even stressful time for parents-to-be. The Wellness Centre is here to support you, especially in this unusual time.  Pandemic or not, everyone needs to be ready for baby’s arrival.

Get ready for birth by attending four Prenatal Information Meetings given by the perinatal team from Jeffery Hale Community Services.

Due to COVID-19 and the most recent government measures that will be in place, it is yet to be decided if the meetings will take place online or in person, or both.   The decision will be taken one month prior to the meetings.

For more details and to register for these meetings, please visit the webpage of Jeffery Hale Community Services.

Sunset Ferry Ride to Quai Paquet for Newcomers, Open to All!
Aug 27 @ 5:30 PM – 8:30 PM

The Voice of English-speaking Quebec invites you for the Sunset Ferry Ride on Tuesday, August 27 from 5:40 to 8:30 PM.

We will ride the ferry to Quai Paquet in Lévis that leaves at 5:40 PM. Once there, we can grab some food or some ice cream (or both!) from the food trucks available or from the ice cream shop located one block away from the Quai, while getting to know each other! We will be returning on the 8:00 PM ferry (to Québec).  We will bring board games to facilitate your interaction with others. At the Quai, there are 160 water jets, perfect to refresh you, so make sure you bring or wear your sandals or why not your swimsuit! If you are an avid photographer, you can also check out the Red stairs (193 steps) located two blocks away from the Quai, and admire the beauty of the view from atop. There is also a café near the Quai, not far from the ice cream shop. Feeling like picknicking? By all means, bring your own snacks and a picnic blanket or portable chairs!

The fees for the ferry ride are covered for participants and the event is open to all! Registration is required and we have a limited number of places.

TO REGISTER

The Ferris Wheel ride and any other purchases (like meals) are not covered.

Library Lectures: Eli MacLaren – Morrin Centre
Sep 26 @ 7:00 PM – 8:00 PM

 

Join us for our series of talks in honour of the Literary and Historical Society of Quebec’s 200th anniversary.

A New Account of Western Canadian Authorship: The Poetry of Margaret Laurence’s Mother-in-Law

What models of being a writer were available to the young Margaret Laurence (1926–87) in the years leading up to her breakthrough novel, The Stone Angel (1964)? What structures of publishing and authorship were in place to support such an achievement by a woman from the Prairies? Among the Western Canadian authors of the Depression and the interwar period was one whom Margaret particularly acknowledged as a mentor – her husband Jack’s mother, Elsie Fry Laurence (1893–1982). Examining Elsie’s books and periodical contributions sheds new light on the possibilities and limits of being an author in Western Canada. This talk will trace Elsie’s life and career – through her romantic novel written as a governess in imperial Russia, her contributions to the Edmonton Journal and Alberta Poetry Year Book, her Ryerson Poetry Chap-Books, and her later fiction – to show how she carved out a practice of imagining the key roles played by women in rural Canada, a theme that would deeply inspire Margaret. In addition to her books, this account draws on interviews and correspondence with Elsie’s surviving children and grandchildren, thereby assembling an archive for a talented poet whom literary criticism has until now overlooked.

 

Presenter Biography

Eli MacLaren teaches poetry, Canadian literature, and the history of books and publishing in the Department of English at McGill University, where he is currently the director of graduate studies. He is the author of Dominion and Agency: Copyright and the Structuring of the Canadian Book Trade, 1867–1918 (2011) and Little Resilience: The Ryerson Poetry Chap-Books (2020). He is the vice-president of the Bibliographical Society of Canada and a co-researcher at the Groupe de recherches et d’études sur le livre au Québec. As the director of the Montreal International Poetry Prize, he co-ordinates a team of students and colleagues in building the international network for contemporary poetry.
