We are pleased to be able to offer our 18th Annual Lecture Series this February and March. Of course, we’ve had to make some changes: this year’s series is being held virtually over Zoom and we’ve lowered ticket prices to just $20 for the whole series (attend as many or as few as you’d like). As an added perk, tickets include exclusive access to recordings of all lectures at the conclusion of the series. Lectures will be about 45 minutes, but we will still have a question period. The best part of a virtual series is that we’ve been able attract speakers from further afield since travel isn’t an issue.

Feb. 2: Ted Glenn | The Incredible Story of Two Journalists, a Burlesque Star, and the Expedition to Oust Louis Riel

Feb. 9: Charlotte Gray | True Crime and History
