SUMMARY:BC Heritage Week 2021
DESCRIPTION:It’s BC Heritage Week! To celebrate we’ve put together a quiz of Cranbrook’s ‘firsts’ to test your knowledge of #Cranbrookheritage. Everyone who completes the quiz will be entered to win a beautiful\, framed print of the Cranbrook St. Eugene Hospital generously donated by Dave Humphrey. The print has been framed with wood remaining from the hospital building after it was destroyed by fire in 2002. To earn bonus entries share this quiz on Facebook and Instagram and be sure to tag us @cbkhistorycentre.\n“Heritage is our legacy from the past\, what we live with today and we pass on to future generations. Our cultural and natural heritage are both irreplaceable sources of life and inspiration\, our touchstone\, our reference point\, our identity.” UNESCO\nClick Here to start the quiz!\n  \n \nThe building of the Hospital was started in 1900 on five acres of land donated by Colonel Baker. On February 6th\, 1901\, patients were transferred to this new building\, together with a staff of six Sisters and their Mother Superior. Over the next 67 years the hospital buildings were expanded and housed hundreds of patients\, many nurses and many doctors. \nAbout the artist: Lloyd Gordon Burgess (1913-1988)\, was raised in Cranbrook and both his wife and her sister took their nurses’ training in the old building. Lloyd’s wife passed away in 1986 and he wanted to produce a print in her memory and to donate it to the nurses at their St. Eugene Nurses’ Reunion.  Sadly Lloyd passed away before he was able to complete his pen and ink drawing.  Lloyd’s son\, Bryan Burgess\, completed the original print and donated it to the nurses. This original print was handed over to the Green Home where it still hangs today.  Bryan produced a limited run of prints from this original and this is one of those prints now reunited in a frame made with some of the original St. Eugene Hospital wooden timbers. \n*You must be a resident of Canada to win. \n  \n#explorecranbrook #localhistory #bcheritageweek

SUMMARY:Ed Talks Panel: Building Community in Heritage Buildings
DESCRIPTION:Join our panelists for an evening of reflection on what heritage buildings mean for Cranbrook and our many diverse communities in the present day. They will share their thoughts on the difficult decisions that accompany the restoration of historic buildings\, the benefits of operating out of a heritage building\, why it is important for them to house their organization in a heritage building and more. \nOur Featured Panelists: \nFerdy Belland is a long-time contributor to Cranbrook’s arts and culture communities\, with a multifaceted and colorful career combining music\, theatre\, carpentry\, journalism\, and events promotion spanning over 30 years. In January 2020 he and his partners purchased the venerable Armond Theatre building in Downtown Cranbrook; their ongoing renovation and restoration will see the Armond reopen post-pandemic as a sustainable multipurpose performing-arts facility and community hub\, boosting downtown revitalization\, nightlife resurgence\, cultural reinvigoration\, regional tourism\, and civic pride.  \n  \n  \nHuyas\, hu qakⱡik Janice Alpine. Early in my career I wanted to ensure I would make a difference on people’s outlook on life. I was a key individual in conducting many research surveys\, policy development in education\, housing and safety regulations that have assisted with the current agreements my nation has in place today. I then moved on to enhance my education and took an intensive course in Tourism and Hospitality Management – Hotel and Motel Management a two-year program that was condensed into nine months and successfully passed with a 4.0 average. Utilizing my newfound knowledge took me from project development manager of our current prestigious St. Eugene Mission Resort to Band management\, to becoming my own consulting business for over twelve years assisting my communities in developing policies and procedures in all aspects of band administration and governance. Currently I am a Business Development Officer and most recently added Tourism Engagement to my duties with the Kootenay Aboriginal Business Development Agency. In my tenure with KABDA I work with entrepreneurs to reach their goals by offering business support. In 2011 I challenged the Technical Level of Aboriginal Economic Development and received my certification though Nicola Valley Institute of Technology. As I advanced in my position I was able to acquire my certification in Later Violence and offered the workshops through the Ktunaxa Communities and at the Ktunaxa Nation Council level and organization staff and Nazko First Nation in Quesnel BC. I worked with Small Business BC to become a Taking the Stage facilitator for women in business. In 2015 I was awarded the Volunteer of the Year Awarded through Community Future’s BC. I was also nominated for the Kootenay Business Magazine Inspirational Business Woman of the year in 2012. In 2018 I received my Ombuds certification through York University. I have been involved in many volunteer efforts since 1999 that include Manager for Ktunaxa Nation Dance Troupe\, and sit on many boards and committees: Community Futures East Kootenay\, Ministers Tourism Engagement Council\, Kootenay Rockies Tourism\, Cranbrook Tourism\, College of the Rockies Business Management Program Advisory\, ʔakisq̓nuk Housing Authority\, Qat̓muk Steering Committee\, Crown of the Continent Executive and Columbia River Treaty Heritage Project Steering Committee. In my free time I assist my community with their governance structure which is proving to be favorable. Taxas! \n  \nPeter Schalk. Having resided in Cranbrook for the last 55 years\, I have been in\, and shopped at\, the historic buildings in Cranbrook. The history and architecture of those buildings are ingrained in my mind and when they are torn down and replaced\, I feel we all lose a piece of our past.\nI have been part of the Cranbrook Community Theatre Society (CCT) for almost 35 years in many capacities: Actor\, builder\, Board member and preservationist.\nSince 2013 I have participated with others in writing grants to renovate our building “the Studio/Stage Door”. We are proud that we have been successful in achieving our goal: to preserve a historic building which was an integral part of Cranbrook’s past. \n  \nFred Williams. Five-years-ago\, my partners and I decided to invest in a heritage building as the location for a craft beer gastropub. We wanted to create a space where people like us could get together and have meaningful conversations while enjoying the best food and beer BC has to offer. A ninety-year-old red brick building was the perfect spot for this social hub. I have a background in business and construction\, but I wanted my next project to contribute to the culture and vibrancy of Cranbrook and allow me to enjoy the Kootenay lifestyle with my family. Like all heritage buildings\, ours had its peculiarities and required creative solutions. My Kootenay life\, depending on the day\, requires me to be a dad\, husband\, housekeeper\, plumber\, electrician\, heritage building restorer\, and bartender. I am grateful for them all. \n  \nDue to recent public health measures\, the panel will be conducted on zoom for the safety of participants and attendees. \n[gravityform id=”8″ title=”true” description=”true”] \nThank you to the East Kootenay Community Credit Union\, without whose funding Ed Talks would not be possible.

It will highlight the way the Ktunaxa used this land before colonial settlers arrived\, and make connections to how these traditions and history influence current environmental practices. \nAttend this series to gain the knowledge and tools help us and our communities move closer to a more sustainable\, equitable\, regenerative and resilient future\, starting with our own backyards. \nLECTURES\nMay 12th – TRADITIONAL RELATIONSHIP WITH THIS LAND\nOur opening lecture will bring renowned speaker\, Sophie Pierre from the Ktunaxa Nation to talk attendees through the traditional relationship between people and this region’s land. This lecture will also encourage attendees to consider the relationship between Ktunaxa and the land as well as incorporate some of those traditional practices into their outdoor spaces. \nMay 19th – RE-WILDING YOUR SPACE\nBackyard wilderness enthusiasts Caroline Gregg and Rob Woods will take attendees through the process of creating backyard spaces that attract and support healthy pollinators and fauna. From plant selection to planning and design\, this lecture is informative\, fun and practical. \nMay 26th – ELIZABETH LAKE: PROTECTING OUR COMMUNITY’S BACKYARD\nElizabeth Lake is an essential ecosystem within Cranbrook city limits. This lecture titled sees expert Stewart Wilson from the Elizabeth Lake Committee walk attendees through the importance of this ecosystem\, noting local wildlife\, including what each of us can do to ensure that special areas like this can be preserved for not only ourselves but for future generations. \n**Note attendees can register for ONE\, TWO or all THREE lectures. \nPANELISTS\nSOPHIE MAE PIERRE\, granddaughter of Chief Eustace\, was born in Cranbrook\, BC and has lived all her life at ‘Aqam\, the St. Mary’s Indian Reserve. She attended the Kootenay Indian Residential School and the Mt. Baker Secondary School in Cranbrook. Sophie served her community of ‘Aqam 30 years\, 26 as elected Chief\, and was the administrator of the Ktunaxa/Kinbasket Tribal Council for 25 years.  She also served as the tribal chair of the Ktunaxa Nation Council. Sophie was recognized as an Officer of the Order of Canada in 2016.  She also received the Order of British Columbia in 2002. Sophie retired in 2015 and now spends her time as an elder advisor to her community and to the Ktunaxa Nation. \nCAROLINE GREGG AND ROB WOODS moved from Nova Scotia to Kimberley in January 2016\, leaving behind their farm and vast vegetable and flower gardens along with a productive greenhouse. Rob is an avid birdwatcher who records 200 species each year throughout the East Kootenays. Caroline loves to get her hands dirty in the soil growing flowering plants\, veggies and herbs\, stemming from her horticultural education and farm experience. Pairing these passions was a natural starting point to renovate the back yard\, incorporating both of our interests. We invite you to join us on our journey to create a private sanctuary for both wildlife and humans. \nSTEWART WILSON is a former elementary teacher who regularly took his classes from Gordon Terrace Elementary to Elizabeth Lake throughout the school year to foster and develop their awareness and sense of environmental stewardship.

SUMMARY:'New Roots' Online Premiere and Q&A with Director Mark Locki
DESCRIPTION:New Roots is a short documentary film that tells the story of Michael and Marie-Eve\, two local farmers as they explore how farming connects them to the past\, present\, and future. \nJoin Director Mark Locki with Wildsight Kimberley Cranbrook and the Cranbrook History Centre to learn all about the story behind the documentary and for a Q&A with the films stars afterwards. \n \n More About The Film:\nThis short documentary follows Michael Albert\, Marie-Eve Fradette and their 2 young daughters through a growing season on their farm in Wycliffe\, BC. Through the film\, Michael and Marie-Eve describe their personal journeys\, from their youth growing up around farms to their passion for food\, and their desire to pass down their knowledge to their children. Michael talks about his transformation from being an artist/photographer in his past life to his current art – growing food\, and what it means to him personally to be connected to his past. While they know they may not be able to make a significant change in how society currently views food\, they know they can provide that change in their own community\, and it starts in their household. \nInterviews with Chad Kile and Meredith Funston\, two local food experts\, provide insight into the reasons we need to build knowledge of our food systems to ensure a more food secure future for our local communities. \nMore About the Filmmaker:\nMark Locki is an award-winning photographer\, writer and emerging filmmaker based in Kimberley\, BC. His stories of peoples\, places and cultures aim to inspire others to explore the world\, chase their dreams\, and work towards making the world a better place. Topics that are the focus of his work include environmental and social causes\, sustainable tourism and outdoor recreation. \nAn avid traveller\, Mark has been privileged to explore much of North America\, Europe and Latin America\, with Mexico holding a special place in his heart. When not behind the camera\, Mark enjoys spending time in the mountains on foot and ski\, or in front of the BBQ cooking up a storm. \n  \n[gravityform id=”11″ title=”true” description=”false”]

SUMMARY:Ed Talk: Memories of Japanese Migrant Sex Workers in Transpacific Kootenays
DESCRIPTION:  \nJoin the Cranbrook History Centre on June 23rd\, 2021\, to welcome Professor Ayaka Yoshimizu as our monthly Ed Talk speaker. She will give a presentation on the research that she conducted on the transpacific underground in Cranbrook and the East and Central Kootenays in 2018. \nPlease note: This presentation will contain discussions of sex work and may not be suitable for young audiences. \nIn her talk\, Ayaka Yoshimizu will share part of her research on memories of Japanese women who were involved in the transnational sex trade in Japan and North American between 1850-1941. Her research identifies available traces of this elusive and repressed history and examines the ways in which the lives of those who survived the underground economy and their losses have been memorialized in art\, literature\, material objects and memorial places. This talk specifically highlights findings from her archival and fieldwork research in East and Central Kootenays and explores an ethical way to engage with this history. \nMore About Our Presenter:\nAyaka Yoshimizu is Assistant Professor of Teaching in the Department of Asian Studies at the University of British Columbia. Her research interests include transpacific migration and cultures\, memories and senses\, and performative methodology. Her recent publications include “Unsettling memories of Japanese migrant sex workers: Carceral mobilities of the Transpacific Underground at the turn of the 20th century” (Topia\, forthcoming) and “Doing Performance Ethnography among the Dead\, Remembering Lives of Japanese Migrants in Transpacific Sex Trade” (Performance Matters\, 2018). She is currently working on a monograph tentatively entitled\, Doing Ethnography in the Wake of the Displacement of Transnational Sex Workers in Yokohama: Sensuous Remembering. \n  \n  \n[gravityform id=”12″ title=”true” description=”true”]

SUMMARY:Ed Talk - Lost Cranbrook: Memories of the Post Office 50 Years After its Demolition
DESCRIPTION:POSTPONED EVENT:\nPlease note that this event is no longer taking place on July 21st. It has been postponed due to unforeseen circumstances. It will now take place on Wednesday August 4th\, 2021 from 7:00-8:00PM MT.\n \nOn July 6th\, 1971 Cranbrook’s historic post office was demolished after 58 years standing as an architectural highlight on Baker Street. This July\, 50 years later\, we invite local historian and Cranbrookian\, Jim Cameron\, to share the history of the 1913 post office and how its demolition came to be. Jim Cameron will be presenting his talk in our historic Royal Alexandra Hall\, the first in-person public program that we will be hosting following the province’s reopening. \nAn Introduction to the Post Office History: In 1908\, the dominion government announced the purchase of three vacant city lots on the corner of Baker Street and Hanson Avenue\, to serve as the site of a Dominion Post Office and Customs building. The plans for the structure gained immediate approval among the people Cranbrook\, not least for its handsome appearance but also for its importance in the establishment of the city as a district centre. The Post Office\, perhaps the most admired and photographed building in Cranbrook over the years\, opened in 1913\, and served the city well until a warm July day in 1971\, when\, in a great cloud of dust and disbelief\, it completely disappeared.   \nMore About Our Presenter:\nJim Cameron was born and raised in Cranbrook\, B.C.\, where his family roots go back well over a century. A professional musician\, artist and author\, he has dedicated a great deal of time and research to local Cranbrook history. Writer of the popular and long-running newspaper column “Janus – Cranbrook Then and Now\,” he has more recently authored two very successful history books: Cranbrook Then and Now – Volumes One and Two.         \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nPlease note:  \nThis event will be taking place in person at the Royal Alexandra Hall. For this reason\, we are limiting our capacity to 50 registrations. If you register for the event and can no longer make it\, please notify us so that we can make the seat available to a different attendee. \nFor those who are not comfortable attending the event in person\, we will livestream the presentation on youtube. It will also be kept on our youtube page for those who want to re-visit or who are not available to attend the event. \n[gravityform id=”14″ title=”true” description=”true”]
