To celebrate Canada’s sesquicentennial and Guelph’s 190th anniversary, Guelph Museums launches a unique lecture series to reflect on our collective history and the theme of nation building. Building Canada Lectures, presented in partnership with the University of Guelph, is set for the second Wednesday of each month at 7 PM at Guelph Civic Museum.

On July 12, the Building Canada Lectures will feature professor Kris Inwood from the Department of Economics and Finance. The title of Kris' talk is "Making Sense of our Nation: Using the census and historical data to explain who we are and how we live."

Admission is by donation.
