Memories of Brantford is a public cultural/heritage/educational project that started in 2019 to research, share, and celebrate the legacies of the city's diverse immigrant communities. Various partners have come together to create cultural/heritage events, including a themed exhibit, original play, historical walk, musical performances, food and panel discussion to share the stories of Brantford's immigrant communities.
Working in partnership with the Brant Historical Society, Brant Theatre Workshops, Canadian Industrial Heritage Centre, Brantford Public Library, Laurier Brantford and the Dutch immigrant community of Brantford, we will be holding our main events on October 17-18 we will occupy the downtown for a two day event which will include the opening of a Historical Exhibit at the Museum, a Historical Walking Tour throughout the downtown, Dutch music, Dutch food, and a panel discussion in the Laurier Academic Centre and a play based on Brantford's Dutch memories in the Stephen Kun Theatre.
