Translations of the text and live translators will be on hand. It has been a hope of mine to share these stories with as many as possible and it seems like that dream is becoming possible thanks to the efforts of these two organizations.
Do you have a favourite Guelph performing artist, craft person, media artist, visual artist, musician or ensemble, writer, that you believe deserves recognition?
Did you know you can give them that recognition by nominating them for a GRETA?
Well you can, and you can do that right HERE, right now.
February 28, 2027 will kick off this annual Bicentennial legacy event.
Want to know more? We take a deep dive into the underground of downtown Guelph to learn about what keeps this city healthy and alive. Stay tuned to learn about these special tours coming in October.
That's all I can say for now. This project is in development and JayWalking Guelph is delighted to be a part of it!

I'm delighted to be presenting Lilt of Laughter, Trace of Tears as part of SPARC (Supporting Performing Arts in Rural and Remote Communities)'s Small Venue Pitch Program.
If you're a presenter—or help organize entertainment for a community hall, library, theatre, arts council, museum, or other intimate venue—this program is well worth exploring.
The showcase features theatre, music, children's programming, and more, all created with smaller venues in mind by professional artists from across Ontario.
You can learn more HERE OR contact me and I will put you in touch directly.
And if you know someone who books live entertainment for your community, I'd appreciate you sharing this with them.
A few years ago I performed a poem for Tea 'N' Tales. Brian Holstein returned the favour by composing this for me.
Give a listen. You'll find it most enjoyable.
Oh, and here's how all this started.
