We recognize that people mark Canada Day in different ways, and we invite you to spend it at the Civic Museum in community, contemplation, and creativity.
Begin your day with a Guided Meditation with Alpa Acharya at 10:00 a.m. This 45-minute session – held outdoors on our patio, weather permitting – starts with gentle stretching and breathing exercises, followed by a meditation designed to cultivate unconditional love and a deep sense of interconnectedness. Together, we’ll explore our infinite consciousness and our relationship with the universe. Feel free to bring a yoga mat. No sign-up necessary.
At 11:30 a.m. and 2:00 p.m., join Circle of Sound: A Drop-In Interactive Experience with Gary Diggins. In this engaging session, Diggins will introduce world instruments and musical practices that foster connection and collaboration. Drum, chant, and celebrate in a communal circle of sound—no experience necessary, just a willingness to listen, play, and be present.
While at the Museum, explore our exhibitions, including Art As We Are: Creative Community Care, Darkness and Light: Inside the Ontario Reformatory, Where the Rivers Meet, and The Families Gallery
Whether you’re seeking quiet reflection or joyful connection, the Civic Museum offers a welcoming space to mark Canada Day in a way that resonates with you.
