The Newfoundland and Labrador of yesterday was weirder than you might remember, and no one is more qualified to be your guide through the twisted terrain of local history than folklorist and storyteller Dale Jarvis. Remarkable phenomena, swarms of grubs, promiscuous spitting, whale milk, and raisins as large as figs are all historical fodder for his most recent book "On This Day." Join Dale for a peek inside his story-filled brain as he shares stories from, and about, the quirky (and mostly true) events that inspire his work.

Kickstart your weekend by joining us at The Rooms! Spend Saturday mornings with your little ones in our charming Harbour View Room. It's a delightful opportunity for unguided playtime amidst a variety of toys and books tailored for toddlers aged 2 to 4.

There's no need to pre-register; simply pay your admission at The Rooms front desk and then drop in anytime between 10 am and noon and let the weekend festivities commence! 

While the activities are designed for children aged 2 to 4, younger kids are more than welcome. Caregivers are required to accompany their children throughout the session. Our program room can accommodate up to 20 adults with their little ones, but if it's full, caregivers are encouraged to step back momentarily to allow space for others to join in the fun.

The Playdate is included in the cost of admission. Free for Rooms Members. 

With support from Tom and Susan (Kent) Foran Family Foundation.
