SUMMARY:NATURE + CLIMATE + COMMUNITY SERIES: WHAT'S IT LIKE TO OWN A ZEV?
DESCRIPTION:If you have ever wondered how much an electric vehicle (EV) costs\, how far can it drive\, or what charging infrastructure you may need\, this event is for you! William York of the Electric Vehicle Association of Alberta will debunk common EV myths and demonstrate how realistic an EV purchase could be for you. Whether you are an EV expert or interested in learning more\, we invite you to join this free event. \n\nThe Canmore Museum participates in the Restrictions Exemption Program. As a result\, program registrants attending this onsite program will be required to show proof of vaccination\, a negative test result (from within the last 48 hours) or a certificate of medical exemption along with one piece of photo ID. Wearng masks is also be required by all participants throughout the duration of the program This program will also be live streamed for those wishing to participate virtually.\n\nABOUT THE PRESENTERS \nThis event is being run by the Bow Valley Climate Action Society and the Biosphere Institute of the Bow Valley\, with support from the Canmore Museum. \nBow Valley Climate Actionis a group of citizens who are deeply concerned about climate change. We live\, work\, or just spend time in the Bow Valley. We are a volunteer organization\, and always welcome new members!  We are a registered non-profit society. They meet monthly to share ideas\, plan upcoming events and activities\, and discuss progress.  They have a number of working groups that focus on the topics of buildings\, transportation and advocacy.  These working groups generally meet independently of the larger group to advance work on their topic area\, and come to regular monthly meetings to report progress\, discuss ideas\, and celebrate achievements. \nBiosphere Institute of the Bow Valley \nThe Biosphere Institute of the Bow Valley empowers community leadership on environmental challenges. They do so by providing high-quality environmental education programs to both children and adults\, and by actively seeking community members’ participation\, guidance\, and in-depth collaboration in planning and executing conservation programs. They also lead research to understand whether our efforts meaningfully change public knowledge\, attitudes\, and actions about conservation and nature. \nThe Canmore Museum \nCelebrating our community includes understanding the important role that our landscapes and local environment play in the visitors we see\, the adventures we embark on\, and the stories we tell. For this reason\, we at the Canmore Museum recognize the importance of building an equitable\, nature-positive\, carbon-neutral future. Over the first half of 2022\, the Canmore Museum will be hosting the Nature + Climate + Community Series—co-created in partnership with community organizations\, knowledge holders\, and storytellers in the Bow Valley—to explore the various dimensions of how nature\, climate\, and community interact\, and how we can bolster a sustainable future in Canmore. \nThis event series has been made possible thanks to funding from the Banff Canmore Community Foundation\, the Town of Banff\, the Town of Canmore\, and Natural Resources Canada.

SUMMARY:NATURE + CLIMATE + COMMUNITY SERIES: BOW VALLEY FOOD CHARTER + ME
DESCRIPTION:Join the Bow Valley Food Alliance for a discussion about the local Food Charter\, which outlines our community’s values surrounding the foods we grow\, harvest\, and eat and how we can contribute\, both individually and as a community\, to local food sustainability. \nIn recent years\, food movements have been gaining momentum across Canada. With a growing awareness about the need to create community-based food systems\, one of the ways these movements advocate for change is through the creation of Food Charters\, which outline a community’s values surrounding the foods they grow\, harvest\, and eat. Building on the creation of Food Charters that have been adopted by municipalities across the country\, the Bow Valley Food Alliance began work on the Bow Valley Food Charter in early 2018. Central to the creation of this Charter was a series of community conversations\, workshops\, and take-home conversation kits available to all Bow Valley community members. \nThe Îyârhe Nakoda Nations of the Chiniki\, Bearspaw\, and Wesley have been integral in contributing to the Charter process\, including highlighting the relationship between the Buffalo Treaty and Bow Valley Food Charter. The Bow Valley Food Alliance is particularly grateful for the time that community members have contributed in sharing their knowledge. \nSince the beginning of settlement in the Bow Valley\, large household gardens were a vital food source for Canmore families\, ensuring that they had food through a long winter season. The heritage garden at the Canmore NWMP Barracks continues this tradtiion and is one example of local food gardens contributing to local food sustainability. It is run by a team of volunteers and contributes its annual crop of vegetables and fruits to the Canmore Food Bank.\n\nABOUT OUR SPEAKERS \nThe Bow Valley Food Alliance (BVFA) is a regional organization of passionate citizens and professionals dedicated to addressing food security. BVFA addresses issues regarding access to affordable\, healthy and fresh food in a coordinated way from the continental divide to the foothills along the Bow River corridor (from Lake Louise\, ID9\, Banff\, Canmore\, Exshaw\, MD of Bighorn to Morley and Stoney Nakoda Nations). It is an independent non-profit society to better serve the diverse needs of this unique valley and communities. BVFA supports small and growing local food producers\, ranchers and processors. BVFA encourages equitable\, sustainable practices at all points of the food system. In doing so\, we will strengthen the community’s connection to food and achieve a thriving\, healthy\, environmentally- and socially-engaged community.

SUMMARY:STORIES OF CANMORE BOOK CLUB | SPIRITS OF THE ROCKIES: REASSERTING AN INDIGENOUS PRESENCE IN BANFF NATIONAL PARK
DESCRIPTION:Join Mary-Beth Laviolette in conversation with author and professor Dr. Courtney Mason of Thompson University (Kamloops\, BC) and Tony Snow\, our Associate Curator of Indigenous Cultural Content\, about the book “Spirits of The Rockies: Reasserting an Indigenous Presence in Banff National Park”.\nABOUT THE BOOK \nAs we travel along the TransCanada towards the towering terrain of the Rockies\, how many of us are aware this iconic highway cuts right through the Stoney Nakoda reserve? The Banff-Bow Valley is the heart of spiritual and economic life for the Nakoda people. Beginning with the Treaty 7 agreement (1877)\, the Nakoda were displaced from the region by the reserve system and the creation of Canada’s first national park. In Spirits of the Rockies\, Courtney W. Mason explores the history and cultural heritage of the Stoney Nakoda as they reasserted their presence in the 20th century becoming involved in local tourism economies and the Banff Indian Days summer sporting festivals. Based on oral histories with Nakoda Elders and written with the guidance of Nakoda artist and elder activist\, Rolland Rollinmud and Nakoda Nation research director\, Ian A.L. Getty\, the book tackles the publicly little known history of these Indigenous peoples and their relationship with the Banff-Bow Valley. \nPurchase the book through the Canmore Museum Online Shop. \nABOUT THE AUTHOR \nDr. Courtney Mason is a Professor and Canada Research Chair (renewed in 2020) in Rural Livelihoods and Sustainable Communities. He is cross appointed between Natural Resource Science and the Tourism Management Department at Thompson Rivers University in British Columbia. \nCourtney completed his PhD at the University of Alberta where he investigated the displacement of Indigenous peoples in the formation of Banff National Park.  Along with the history of educational institutions on the Nakoda reserve at Morley\, his dissertation focused on colonial power relations and the experiences of Nakoda peoples in the Canadian Rocky Mountains. He worked as a SSHRC Postdoctoral Fellow with the Indigenous Health Research Group at the University of Ottawa where he contributed to community-based food security and health programs in rural Northern Ontario (Oji-Cree) and the Northwest Territories (Dene and Métis). \nHis current research examines rural and Indigenous land use development with a focus on tourism economies and protected area management. He is also interested in rural food security\, sport fishing tourism\, conservation practices and environmental change. He is the author of Spirits of the Rockies: Reasserting an Indigenous Presence in Banff National Park (U of Toronto Press\, 2014) and the co-editor of A Land Not Forgotten: Indigenous Food Security and Land-Based Practices in Northern Ontario (U of Manitoba Press\, 2017).  His research program is funded by SSHRC\, CIHR\, the Canadian Mountain Network and BC Parks. He is a SSHRC Leaders representative. \nIn his spare time you will find him fly fishing on local rivers and stillwater\, skiing and hiking with his young family in the Kamloops region and throughout BC.

SUMMARY:NOVEL IDEAS BOOK TALK | MARY GRAHAM
DESCRIPTION:Hosted by Canmore-based Creative Director and Cultural Amplifier Bridget Ryan\, Novel Ideas brings people together to explore ideas and perspectives related to Canmore culture\, history\, place\, and identity with local authors\, spoken word artists\, historians\, and musicians.\nAs part of our Family Day Big Weekend events\, host Bridget Ryan welcomes musician Phillip Alexander Nugent\, John Snow\, and author Mary Graham to the Canmore Museum. Bridget and Mary Graham will discuss her new book\, A Stunning Backdrop: Alberta in the Movies\, 1917 – 1960\, which tells of the unconventional\, untold story of Alberta’s film history\, defined by the terrible beauty of its pristine landscape\, surprisingly important to Hollywood\, and recaptured in lost or ignored Indigenous perspectives and stories. Stories of the Stoney Nakoda First Nations’ near 100-year history in movies will be highlighted by Stoney Nakoda guest John Snow. A book signing will follow. \nDoors open at 6:45 pm\, with live music by Phil Nugent from 7:00 to 7:30 pm\, followed by a book talk from 7:30 to 8:10 pm with an opportunity for audience questions and discussion afterward. Refreshments and appetizers catered by our Canmore culinary team of Chef Dallas Suttie and Chef Darcy Price will be available throughout the evening. \nABOUT THE BOOK \nAlberta’s magnificent landscape has served as a popular location for filmmakers since the dawn of the movie industry. For film pioneers\, Alberta embodied the myth of the Great Northwest\, a primeval mountain wilderness and the last western frontier. In turn\, Canadian entrepreneurs were eager for American studios to drape the Alberta landscape across the backdrop of their movies\, an advertisement without equal. \nA Stunning Backdrop is the untold story of six rollicking decades of filmmaking in Alberta. Mary Graham draws on twelve years of exhaustive research to reveal a film history like no other\, illuminating the deep importance of the province to Hollywood. She explores the often friendly partnerships between American filmmakers and Indigenous communities\, particularly the Stoney Nakoda\, that provided economic opportunities and\, in many cases\, allowed them to retain religious and cultural practices banned by the Canadian government. \nBeautifully illustrated with archival photography and featuring century-old set stills alongside photographs of the locations as they appear today\, by Jean Becq\, Solomon Chiniquay\, Jeff Wallace\, George Webber\, and Paul Zizka\, A Stunning Backdrop is the fascinating\, often surprising\, always unconventional story of film in a province whose rugged\, compelling\, multifarious\, terribly beautiful landscape continues to inspire filmmakers and audiences around the world.\nABOUT THE AUTHOR \nMary Graham is a writer\, documentary journalist\, and film historian. She has appeared as a feature film specialist at CBC Radio and ARTE\, the European Culture Channel. She presents frequently about her ongoing work on the importance of Indigenous contributions to Alberta film history in the media\, and at universities\, museums\, and other public venues.\nABOUT THE MUSICIAN \n \nThe seeds of Phill Nugent’s folk-rock sound – sometimes whimsical and sometimes gritty – took root in the northern Canadian wilderness where he was raised. The Yukon-born artist’s background in musical theatre (he first took to the stage at age 5) later evolved into songwriting and self-taught guitar. The juxtapositions that inspire Phill’s songs\, like the comfort of family and the freedom of travel\, or the solitude of nature and connection with an audience\, weave rich storylines into his lyrics. Many of the songs on his first studio EP\, self-titled Phillip Alexander Nugent and released in the fall 2019\, are inspired by his wife Michelle and his sons Miles and Beck.\nABOUT YOUR HOST \nSince 2018\, Bridget has called the Bow Valley home\, where she and Jason Carter own and operate The Carter-Ryan Gallery & Live Art Venue; a gallery by day featuring the amazing work of Indigenous artist Jason Carter. But by night\, you guessed it! Wonderful cabaret fills the walls of the gallery with song and story and yes\, there is even dancing allowed!! After 16 years hosting a morning show on television\, a published author of 5 children’s books\, numerous accolades and awards for various MC/Hosting and charitable events\, she finds herself EXACTLY where she hopes to be – bringing so much insight\, fun and laughter to those who join the Canmore Museum’s Novel Ideas events!
