Coffee & Culture
Since the Coronavirus prevented St. John's Storytelling from planning an in-person festival, they put together a podcast as a way to celebrate storytelling in the midst of catastrophe. Join Mav Adecer and Dave Paddon as they share stories of Home Out Of It, inspired by The Decameron, a set of stories from the 1300s that wove individual narratives of people fleeing The Plague.
Limited seats available. To register, please contact Visitor Services at 757-8090.
Restrictions due to COVID 19 will be in place for everyone’s safety. Masks Required.
Events & Programs
Taking inspiration from Toby Rabinowitz’s exhibition, A World Within A World, visitors can choose an animal silhouette provided by us and decorate it with brightly-coloured patterns using various shapes and materials.
Toby’s artwork is full of bright, imagined worlds with magical creatures and friends playing together. She says her work is for kids and happy adults – make sure you stop in to look for yourself in the art gallery on level 4.
What magical creature will you create?
Drop-in program – no registration is required.
