Spending Thanksgiving, reviewing Guelph's 150th anniversary to see if there are some ideas worth considering for Guelph's 200. Why re-invent the wheel eh?

A parade still comes to the top of the list. Look at this - huge crowds - even a helicopter to capture the excitement!
And a grand ball can raise a lot of money for a worthwhile legacy project.
You don't want to miss a single show, so here is your "go to" site for all things JayWalking Theatre.
We take a deep dive into the underground of downtown Guelph to learn about what keeps this city healthy and alive.
A walking tour with a difference.
Overview:
It's about construction and more! Taste the evolution of Downtown and learn how we're paving the way to an even brighter future.

Construction like this on Wyndham Street happens once in a generation, and for a limited time this fall, we will see all stages of the construction from the original paving to big holes to concrete pours and finished surfaces live as we move throughout the street.
It is no secret Guelph is getting a new library!
So soon we will say farewell to the 100 Norfolk Street Main Branch.

Here's a sample of part of a story you might hear at Heads & Tales.
Recorded at the Minto Arts Council Gallery.
Heads & Tales is a collection of stories, poetry and monologues. Yo draw a title from the hat and I take the leap. 60 minutes of storytelling theatre. Perfect for galleries, libraries, barns and funky intimate venues where storytelling is appreciated. This is The Addressing of Cats, by T.S. Eliot.
