Through a Lens of Placekeeping: Re-Storying Shaughnessy House

Special event, in English, Shaughnessy House, 3 May 2026, 2pm to 4pm

Join us for an intimate afternoon of film shorts by regional Indigenous filmmakers, curated by multidisciplinary Haudenosaunee artist Iako’tsi:rareh Amanda Lickers in Shaughnessy House, former home to late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century Canadian Pacific Rail barons. This afternoon invites you to be a part of the re-storying of Shaughnessy House through a lens of placekeeping: lounging in the salon with hot tea, building connections over light refreshments between screenings. We invite you to take a collective pause while subverting the colonial legacy’s of this well-restored heritage site, animating the space with themes of Indigenous resistance, refusal, and reawakening through narrative sovereignty.

This event is organized in conjunction with the exhibition Everlasting.

It will be held in English and is free of charge. As space is limited, registration is required.

If the activity you are interested in is full, do not hesitate to arrive ten minutes in advance to register on a waiting list. It is possible that places will become free before the beginning of the activity.
