SUMMARY:TIFF Film Circuit: The Penguin Lessons (SOLD OUT!)
DESCRIPTION:(SOLD OUT!) \nDecember 4 | 7:00 PM  \nOur TIFF Film Circuit series continues with a screening of the 2024 British-Argentinian film The Penguin Lessons.

Helmed by Peter Cattaneo (The Full Monty; Military Wives\, TIFF ’19)\, The Penguin Lessons delivers this delightful story with wit\, warmth\, and subtle insight into just how rewarding it can be to do the right thing. \n  \nRuntime: 1 hour 50 minutes \nComedy\, Drama \nMembers FREE; $8 adults\, $6 seniors. \nSOLD OUT!

SUMMARY:Researching the 160th\, Through Military Records & Genealogical Websites With guest speaker\, Kent Kraemer
DESCRIPTION:November 10 | 7:00 PM (Virtual Via Zoom) \nIn researching the 160th Canadian Overseas (Bruce) Battalion\, military records were an invaluable tool. These personnel files contained\, not only\, personal information of the soldier\, but also that of their family. Their service history includes enlistment and discharge dates\, rank\, unit assignments\, and information about injuries sustained. \nMore information was needed to fully tell the stories of these men. Local history books and archival newspaper articles provided additional insights\, however\, genealogical sites helped complete the picture. The addition of census data\, marriage\, immigration and death records all contribute to bringing their soldiers to life. \nRegister HERE: https://bit.ly/2025-11-10-KentKraemer \nFB: 160th Bruce Battalion: https://www.facebook.com/160thBruceBattalion \n____ \nAbout Kent Kraemer \nAlthough born and and raised in Toronto\, Bruce County has always been ‘up home’.  His dad was born in Greenock and mom in Holyrood.  As a student\, he spent his summers farming in Kinloss and Kincardine Townships\, first for his uncle and then with his brother.  As a sales professional and entrepreneur\, he has experience in the brewing\, gaming\, automotive and insurance industries throughout North America.  The highlight of his career being the founding of a craft brewery in Niagara. \nHe became interested the 160th Bruce Battalion in 2007 and formed a Facebook page chronicling the battalion’s history in November 2015.  Researching the 160th involved searching many local\, provincial and federal archives.

SUMMARY:Secret Path Screenings at the BCM&CC
DESCRIPTION:The Secret Path is an animated film adaptation of Gord Downie’s album and Jeff Lemire’s graphic novel. Working with Downie’s poetry and music\, Lemire has created a powerful visual representation of the life of Chanie Wenjack. The film is divided into ten chapters\, each a song from Downie’s musical retelling of Chanie’s story – from his escape from the Cecilia Jeffrey Indian Residential School\, to his subsequent and heartbreaking death from hunger and exposure to the harsh weather. The final product is a uniquely immersive emotional experience – an insight into the life of a little boy who\, as Gord has said\, he never knew\, “but will always love.”  \nRuntime: 60 minutes  \n  \nOctober 20 – Bruce County Museum & Cultural Centre  \nFREE to attend; Preregister to save your seats. \n11:30 AM – REGISTER >> \n 7:00 PM – REGISTER >> \n  \nWalk for Wenjack events in Bruce County are hosted in partnership with Cape Croker Park\, Ktaamgwedaagwad Gindasswin Adult Learning Centre\, Nawash Chief & Council\, Bruce County Museum & Cultural Centre\, Bruce County Public Library\, Municipality of Kincardine\, Municipality of Brockton\, and Bruce Power.  \n

SUMMARY:TIFF Film Circuit: So Surreal: Behind the Masks
DESCRIPTION:October 10 | 7:00 PM  \n  \nOur TIFF Film Circuit series continues with a screening of the 2024 Canadian documentary So Surreal: Behind the Masks. The film unveils the fascinating connection between the work of famed Surrealist artists and Yupʼik and Kwakwa̱ka̱ʼwakw ceremonial masks\, and the quest to bring some of the masks back home.  \n   \nAbout the Film  \n So Surreal: Behind the Masks is a feature documentary that traces the storied journey of Indigenous masks from the far reaches of Turtle Island (North America) into the hands of European Surrealists\, influencing the work and worldview of some of the most well-known modern artists and writers of all time including Max Ernst\, André Breton\, Roberto Matta and Joan Miró – all while following the dramatic quest to return a mask that was brutally stolen from the Kwakwa̱ka̱ʼwakw people on Canada’s northwest coast over a century ago. Part caper\, part road trip\, part spiritual journey\, So Surreal: Behind the Masks follows Cree filmmaker Neil Diamond (Reel Injun) as he travels coast-to-coast and across the Atlantic and back\, gradually piecing together this groundbreaking global story of influence\, reconnection and restitution.  \n   \nRuntime: 1 hour 28 minutes  \nMembers FREE; $8 adults\, $6 seniors.  \n   \nREGISTER >>
