Join us for Heritage Regina's driest lecture yet — an evening of history, song, and story that brings the era of 1920s prohibition to life. This multimedia lecture features archival images and music in a spirited journey from sober ideals to roaring rebellion.
Join us as we explore snapshots of Regina’s lesbian, gay, and queer pasts primarily from 1972 to the mid-eighties. Drawn from VJ Korinek’s award winning book Prairie Fairies, this lecture aims to cover activism, community building, and personal experiences of living queerly in the Queen City and the Province of Saskatchewan.
Heritage Regina board member John Robinson will look back at the popularity of ‘Catalog homes’ in the early 1900s. Learn how early immigrants to western Canada picked their dream homes by flipping pages.
Learn about Regina’s most beloved buildings through a night full of discussion and historical photographs. Heritage Regina board member Rebecca Bend will be joined by local personalities to discuss both their favorite locations, as well as community nominated properties.
Join historian Bill Waiser in an examination of the homesteading experience in Saskatchewan, and discover why only 3 out of 5 settlers succeeded.
