SUMMARY:COLLECTIONS TOUR: THE LIVES OF WOMEN IN EARLY CANMORE
DESCRIPTION:While men’s stories are told in detail\, women are often stereotypically represented in objects related to their traditional social roles\, limited to the home\, domestic duties\, and childrearing.

Join us as we search the Canmore Museum’s collection for information of the lives of women in early Canmore. \nThis special behind-the-scenes collection tour is being hosted as part of our monthly Membership Monday series and is open to both Museum members and the public to participate; advance tickets are required.

SUMMARY:MEMBERSHIP MONDAY: BECOMING A SOCIALLY SUSTAINING MUSEUM
DESCRIPTION:This last year has been one of reflection and change for the museum. As we enter a new year\, we are keen to have a conversation around why the Museum has adopted the Social Museum model and how it is actively working  to engage with the community in meaningful and sustainable ways.  The first Member Monday of the new year will be  a sit down conversation with museum staff and representatives of some of the initiatives the Museum has been working with. This event will focus on two key programs the Canmore Museum is involved in\, OF/By/FOR ALL and Ki Futures.  We are very excited to share some of the steps the museum has been quietly making towards becoming an inclusive and sustainable organization working with and for the Canmore community.  \n\n\n\nABOUT THE PRESENTERS \nDoug Worts. Over the past three decades\, Douglas has published and spoken widely\, in Canada and internationally\, on topics of museum audience\, creativity\, education and the relationship of culture to sustainability.  For almost 20 years\, Doug’s special research and publishing focus has been on understanding and promoting the notion of a ‘culture of sustainability’.  This interest crystallized when he was invited to join LEAD International (Leadership for Environment and Development) – a cross-disciplinary\, global network\, funded by the Rockefeller Foundation and created to explore and promote the goal of sustainability.  He is a founding member of the Canadian Working Group on Museums and Sustainable Communities and a recipient of a Senior Research Fellowship from the Canadian Museums Association.  For five years\, during the 1990s\, Douglas taught a graduate course in museum education – part of the Master of Museum Studies Program at the University of Toronto.  A founding member of the Visitor Studies Association (VSA)\, Doug also has been a consultant to many museums and museum organizations\, including the Victoria and Albert Museum in London\, the Getty Museum in California and the American Association of Museums.  From 2002 to 2005\, he was co-chair of the Alberta Museum Association’s Museum Excellence Program (MEP)\, helping to foster innovation and effectiveness across Alberta museums.  Douglas’ goal is to bring his unique perspective on culture’s relationship to sustainability into practical applications that foster meaningful societal change.   Most recently\, Doug has been working closely with Ki Culture to develop an intenational community of museums focussed on creating shared tools to foster social and environmental sustainability at a local level. \nSarah Knowles serves as the Canmore Museum’s Visitor + Membership Services Officer.
