SUMMARY:THE BETTER BRAIN: A BOOK TALK WITH BONNIE J. KAPLAN
DESCRIPTION:THE BETTER BRAIN:\nA BOOK TALK WITH BONNIE J. KAPLAN \nJoin us for an exciting book talk featuring Bonnie J. Kaplan\, author of The Better Brain\, facilitated by local creative director\, Bridget Ryan. As part of our programming for the current exhibit Soil Superheroes\, Kaplan will delve into the fascinating connections between soil\, food\, and brain health outlined in her book. \nDiscover how the quality of our soil and the food it produces can impact cognitive function and overall brain health. Kaplan’s insights offer valuable knowledge for anyone interested in optimizing brain performance and well-being. \nBook talk from 7:00 PM – 7:45 PM\, followed by a short Q&A session\, light refreshments and book signings. \nABOUT THE AUTHOR \nBonnie J Kaplan\, PhD\, is Professor Emeritus in the Cumming School of Medicine at the University of Calgary; website here. She has published widely on the contribution of nutrition to mental health. Her efforts to include nutrition knowledge in the care of people with mental health challenges has earned her a variety of awards: the Dr. Rogers Prize\, selection as one of 150 Canadian Difference Makers in Mental Health\, and the top “7 Over 70” in Calgary. Her book The Better Brain\, was written with Professor Julia Rucklidge. Her goal is to influence the way mental health treatment is delivered. \n  \n  \n  \nABOUT THE BOOK \nTHE BETTER BRAIN\, a paradigm-shifting approach to treating mental disorders like anxiety\, depression\, and ADHD with food and nutrients\, based on the original\, groundbreaking research of two leading scientists. \nWe are in the midst of a mental health crisis. An estimated one in five American adults suffer from some form of mental illness. Despite the billions of dollars spent in pharmaceutical research and the rising popularity of antidepressant drugs\, we are more depressed and anxious than ever before. \nWhat if we’re looking for solutions in the wrong places? What if instead of treating mental illness with prescriptions and medication\, we changed what we eat and how we feed our brains? \n  \nABOUT YOUR HOST \nBridget Ryan has called the Bow Valley home since 2018\, \, 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.

SUMMARY:UP HIGH Exhibit Tour with Photographer Robert Lemermeyer
DESCRIPTION:EXHIBIT TOUR WITH PHOTOGRAPHER ROBERT LEMERMEYER \nABOUT THE TOUR \nJoin us for an intimate artist tour of the Canmore Museum’s new exhibit\, UP HIGH: The Healing Adventures of Robert Lemermeyer. Experience Robert Lemermeyer’s captivating work as he shares personal stories and anecdotes behind each piece\, revealing the profound journeys that inspired his art. The tour will be followed by an engaging Q&A session in the gallery\, providing a unique opportunity to connect with the artist and delve deeper into his creative process. \nABOUT THE ARTIST \n \nBorn in 1966 in Edmonton Alberta\, Robert Lemermeyer discovered photography as a young boy.  With an architect father\, a photographer uncle\, and most importantly\, a darkroom in the basement of his home\, nothing was foreign about a camera\, a roll of film\, and the magic the two produced together.   \nLater\, Robert honed his photographic skills at Edmonton’s Northern Institute of Technology\, at workshops in New York\, and through studies at the Alberta University of the Arts in Calgary. Then\, assignments came from The Globe and Mail\, Azure\, L’Architecture d’ Aujourd’hui\, EnRoute and Fairmont Magazine. This work\, and many other assignments\, provided Robert the opportunity to photograph Africa’s majestic animals\, St.Petersburg’s historic canals and Japan’s mysterious Shinto shrines. \nAt present\, Robert is the owner of Lemermeyer Inc. in Calgary – a studio with an artistic focus on the Canadian Rocky Mountains. His most recent exhibition titled Relief: A Transformative Journey Through the Rockies premiered at the Bateman Gallery in Victoria\, British Columbia in 2022.

SUMMARY:CANCELLED - Canmore Historic Downtown Tour
DESCRIPTION:This event has been cancelled. \nCanmore has changed a great deal since it was founded in 1883\, evolving from a gritty railway depot to a coal mining town and then finally to an international resort destination. As a center first for the railroad and the industry\, Canmore was a place where you played hard and worked hard. Like many mining towns in southern Alberta and southeastern BC\, the community was faced with many economic ups and downs. Over the past century\, its history as a coal mining community has included boom-town architecture\, interesting characters\, exciting events\, and mine disasters. With the closure of the mine in 1979 and Canmore serving as a host community for the 1988 Winter Olympics\, the community has continued to evolve. Today\, it could be argued that as a resort community\, we play harder than we work as we enjoy the incredible mountain vistas and recreational amenities that Canmore offers today. \nWe invite you to experience our rich and colourful past by exploring Canmore’s built heritage and tracing the continued evolution of our community. Our Historical Downtown Walking Tour will take you to 10 places located within in 2 km radius of the Canmore Museum\, each with its own story to tell as part of the cultural and heritage mosaic of Canmore. The tour will start and end at the Canmore Museum. \n\n\n\nABOUT YOUR GUIDE\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\nRob Alexander is a journalist\, author\, photographer\, and historian. He grew up in Canmore\, steeped in the history of the Canadian West and the sights and sounds of a coal mining town. With an affinity for ruins and abandoned sites\, he gravitated towards story and sense of place\, leading him to explore and share the history and heritage of the Bow Valley\, Alberta\, and Western Canada. He is a former reporter for the Rocky Mountain Outlook newspaper (still a freelancer though)\, author of The History of Canmore\, published in 2010 by Summerthought Publishing of Banff. Rob lives in Calgary where he works as the digitization specialist for Libraries and Cultural resources at the University of Calgary.
