SUMMARY:Author Reading *Giller Prize Winner Suzette Mayr*
DESCRIPTION:Join the Cranbrook History Centre for an exclusive reading with 2022 Giller Prize Winner\, Suzette Mayr\, and her newest award-winning book The Sleeping Car Porter. The historic Argyle Dining Car\, the real-life setting of the fictional novel\, provides an intimate setting for this half-hour reading\, moderated question period and meet & greet with the author. \n  \nWhat people are saying about The Sleeping Car Porter \n“I couldn’t help imagining what a film Wes Anderson might make of Suzette Mayr’s The Sleeping Car Porter. The novel’s main character is a gay Black porter riding the rails in 1920’s Canada\, coping with a horde of difficult long-haul passengers\, including a child who appears to have permanently attached herself to his leg. Terrified that a breach of one of the railway’s insanely restrictive rules will get him fired before he can save enough money for dental school\, he amuses himself―and keeps awake on his grueling shifts―by imagining the medical horrors that lie behind the smiles (or grimaces) of his clientele.” – The New York Times \n“Mayr’s prose is vivid but never overwrought\, capturing the surrealism of intense fatigue in constant motion … Readers will be captivated.” – Publishers Weekly\, starred review \n“Suzette Mayr brings to life –believably\, achingly\, thrillingly –a whole world contained in a passenger train moving across the Canadian vastness\, nearly one hundred years ago. As only occurs in the finest historical novels\, every page in The Sleeping Car Porter feels alive and immediate –and eerily contemporary. The sleeping car porter in this sleek\, stylish novel is named R.T. Baxter –called George by the people upon whom he waits\, as is every other Black porter. Baxter’s dream of one day going to school to learn dentistry coexists with his secret life as a gay man\, and in Mayr’s triumphant novel we follow him not only from Montreal to Calgary\, but into and out of the lives of an indelibly etched cast of supporting characters\, and\, finally\, into a beautifully rendered radiance.” – 2022 Scotiabank Giller Prize Jury \nAwards \nWINNER OF THE 2022 SCOTIABANK GILLER PRIZE \nPUBLISHERS WEEKLY TOP 20 LITERARY FICTION BOOKS OF 2022 \nTHE GLOBE 100: THE BEST BOOKS OF 2022 \nCBC BOOKS: THE BEST CANADIAN FICTION OF 2022 \n  \nTickets: $40.00 + GST\nTicket includes the exclusive reading\, a copy of The Sleeping Car Porter\, and refreshments. *Limited tickets available*\n*Your included copy of The Sleeping Car Porter can be picked up in advance from Huckleberry Books*  Please present your email ticket confirmation to Huckleberry staff on pick-up \n*Sold Out*\n*All proceeds of this fundraising event will support future programming at the Museum \nAbout the Author \nSuzette Mayr is the author of six novels including her most recent\, The Sleeping Car Porter\, which won the 2022 Scotiabank Giller Award. Her other novels have won the ReLit Award and City of Calgary W.O. Mitchell Book Prize\, and been nominated for the Scotiabank Giller Prize\, the Commonwealth Prize for Best Book in the Canada-Caribbean Region\, the Writers’ Guild of Alberta’s Best First Book and Best Novel Awards\, and the Ferro-Grumley Award for LGBT Fiction. Mayr has also published articles in the peer-reviewed journals Horror Studies\, Canadian Literature\, Studies in Canadian Literature\, The Journal of the Association for the Study of Australian Literature\, and in Antipodes. She is a Professor in the Department of English at the University of Calgary where she teaches fiction-writing.

SUMMARY:Ed Talk - Suzette Mayr
DESCRIPTION:As part of the background research for her award-winning novel The Sleeping Car Porter\, Suzette Mayr visited numerous archives across Canada and in the United States. The Cranbrook History Centre was a key resource for Mayr as she worked to situate her fictional main character within a non-fiction\, historical setting. In this talk\, Mayr will discuss the ways in which she incorporated historical research and Cranbrook History Centre artifacts into the novel – using the research as a frame and guide for the work – while also realizing at a certain point that\, as Kate Atkinson writes\, “sometimes to find the truth at the heart of a book a certain amount of reality falls by the wayside.” \nEd Talks are always free to attend but space is limited so please be sure to register \nRegister Here\n  \nAbout the Author \nSuzette Mayr is the author of six novels including her most recent\, The Sleeping Car Porter\, which won the 2022 Scotiabank Giller Award. Her other novels have won the ReLit Award and City of Calgary W.O. Mitchell Book Prize\, and been nominated for the Scotiabank Giller Prize\, the Commonwealth Prize for Best Book in the Canada-Caribbean Region\, the Writers’ Guild of Alberta’s Best First Book and Best Novel Awards\, and the Ferro-Grumley Award for LGBT Fiction. Mayr has also published articles in the peer-reviewed journals Horror Studies\, Canadian Literature\, Studies in Canadian Literature\, The Journal of the Association for the Study of Australian Literature\, and in Antipodes. She is a Professor in the Department of English at the University of Calgary where she teaches fiction-writing. \n  \n  \n  \nCopies of The Sleeping Car Porter can be purchased ahead of the Ed Talk at the Cranbrook History Centre giftshop and Huckleberry Books \n  \nThe Ed Talk Program is funded by the Community Foundation of the Kootenay Rockies and Cranbrook Rotary.

SUMMARY:Ed Talk: Jenny Feick
DESCRIPTION:Canada’s Great Divide Trail (GDT) traverses the vicinity of the high elevation continental watershed divide designated as the interprovincial boundary between Alberta (Alta.) and British Columbia (B.C.). It crisscrosses the vast northwest to southeast trending Canadian Rocky Mountains for more than 1\,100 kilometres from the US/Canada border in Waterton Lakes National Park in the south to Kakwa Provincial Park in B.C. in the north. Although not always officially designated and sometimes merely a wilderness route\, it inspires today’s adventurers to walk some of the same paths as the initial Indigenous peoples and European explorers in the area. The GDT has become one of the most spectacular and demanding long‐distance trails on the planet\, providing hikers with challenges\, scenic rewards and inspiration. But\, how did it arise? \nJoin Dr Jenny Feick\, author of Tales from the Great Divide\, Vignettes on the Origins and Early History of Canada’s Great Divide Trail and Great Divide Trail Association for an evening of stories and photos about how the vision for the Great Divide Trail originated and its route devised. You will journey back to the 1960s\, 1970s and 1980s when the daunting challenge was to consider thousands of square miles of rough and often unmarked terrain to define and establish the GDT route from Mount Robson Provincial Park\, B.C.\, south to the US/Canadian border in Waterton Lakes National Park\, Alberta. Over the years\, several idealistic individuals felt compelled by the vision of a long-distance trail along the crest of the Rockies. Their dedication and tenacity kept them going in the face of challenging and sometimes even life-threatening adventures\, expanding industrial developments and motorized recreational use\, financial limitations\, and bureaucratic obstacles. The work completed in those early days and in the decades to follow laid the foundation for today’s successful GDT and the Great Divide Trail Association. \nRegister Here\nAbout the Speaker \nJenny Feick is an environmental biologist and geographer whose career with Parks Canada and the B.C. Ministry of Environment gave her field experience and an understanding of land use and policy issues in the mountains of western Canada. She currently provides technical editing and environmental policy research services through Nature Wise Consulting. Part of the history of Canada’s Great Divide Trail since 1973/74\, she maintains an active interest in seeing it completed and its corridor protected. \n  \nThis picture\, taken by her husband Ian Hatter on July 21\, 2018\, shows her where she loves to be — out on the High Rock Section of the Great Divide Trail in Alberta.

SUMMARY:Killing the Indian in the Child: Generations Lost and Youth on Reconciliation - Travelling Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:From March 3rd to April 4th you can visit our new travelling exhibits from the Legacy of Hope Foundation. \n*The exhibit is free with regular admission * \nEXHIBITION:\nKilling the Indian in the Child: Generations Lost\nFor several centuries\, Indigenous children were taken from their homes and communities and placed in institutions called Residential Schools. These schools were run by religious orders in\ncollaboration with the Federal Government and were attended by children as young as four or five years of age. \nSeparated from their families and were prohibited from speaking their native languages and practicing their culture\, the vast majority of the over 150\,000 children that attended these schools experienced neglect and\nsuffering. The impacts of sexual\, mental\, and physical abuse\, shame\, and deprivation endured at the Residential Schools continue to affect generations of Survivors\, their families\, and communities today. \nRemarkably\, in the face of this tremendous adversity\, many Survivors and their descendants have retained their language and their culture and continue to work toward healing and Reconciliation. This is likely due to their traditional and cultural beliefs\, teachings and ways of life prior to attending Residential Schools \n\nEXHIBITION:\nYouth on Reconciliation – Imagine A Canada\nThis exhibition explores the concept of Reconciliation through artistic expression and what that means to youth in Canada. The banners feature artworks and poems by winners of the first Imagine a Canada competition\, announced in March of 2016. Imagine a Canada is an annual national art and essay competition sponsored by the National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation in collaboration with Rideau Hall. It asks young people to share their thoughts on what the future of Canada can look like through the lens of hope\, respect\, and Reconciliation. \nWARNING \nThese exhibits contain subject matter that may be disturbing to some visitors and may be triggering.\nPlease call 1-866-925-4419 or your local crisis line for counselling and support.

SUMMARY:Blanket Exercise - Community Workshop
DESCRIPTION:The CHC would like to invite members of the community to participate in the KAIROD Blanket Exercise March 16th and 18th and gain a deeper understanding of Indigenous experiences in Canada. We are honoured to have Ktunaxa Elder\, Margaret Teneese\, host this program in collaboration with the Cranbrook History Centre. \nWhat Is The KAIROS Blanket Exercise? \nDeveloped in collaboration with Indigenous Elders\, Knowledge Keepers and educators\, the KAIROS Blanket Exercise (KBE) is an interactive and experiential teaching tool that explores the historic and contemporary relationship between Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples in the land we now know as Canada. \nDuring this 2 to 3-hour workshop\, participants step on blankets representing the land and into the role of First Nations\, Inuit and Métis peoples. They are guided by trained facilitators\, including Indigenous Elders and Knowledge Keepers\, who work from a script that covers pre-contact\, treaty-making\, colonization\, resistance and much more. Participants read scrolls and respond to cues in the script. The KBE concludes with a debriefing\, conducted as a talking circle\, during which participants discuss the learning experience\, process their feelings\, ask questions\, share insights\, and deepen their understanding. \nOver the past two decades\, thousands of KAIROS Blanket Exercises have been delivered in Canada and around the world\, including in the United States\, Central and South America\, Europe\, and Australia. By engaging participants on both emotional and intellectual levels\, the KBE both educates and creates empathy and understanding. \nThe KAIROS Blanket Exercise at the Cranbrook History Centre is led by a KAIROS trained facilitator and local Ktunaxa Elders. \nReconciliation through Education – We agree with the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada that education is the key to reconciliation. Without a shared understanding of how our collective past brought us to where we are today\, we will not be able to walk together into a better future. We also understand that education is just one step in this journey and that it must be followed by action. \n  \nREGISTRATION HERE

SUMMARY:Sweet Music Man - Kenny Rogers
DESCRIPTION:SHOW DETAILS:\nThe show is approximately 2 hours long plus a short intermission.\nDoors will open at 1:15 pm\nThe show will start at 2:00 pm.\n \nAudience members may take photos/videos.\n \nSweet Music Man is a salute to Kenny Rogers and highlights a lot of Kenny’s hit songs. It would be impossible to include all of his hits\, there are so many! “Sweet Music Man” was pretty much the only song that Kenny wrote\, and some would say it is autobiographical. It was also the song that several country music superstars sang as a dedication to Kenny after he passed in August 2020. I met Kenny a couple of times\, and he told a client in New York City that of all the Kenny Rogers impersonators\, I was his favourite.\n \nThe show also features Nashville Recording Artist Pam Ferens. Pam will open the show and will also sing some duets with me.\n\n\n–\nTickets Available online: www.Showtime101.eventbright.com
