The panel she will be participating in will be on June 15th, currently scheduled for 0845h (although the schedule is currently being revised).

Her topic is Heritage & Kitsch: The Monumental Sculptures of "Kalyna Country", Alberta.

The presentation looks at 4 different sculptures in Alberta, their history, why they were conceived, the cultural meaning, how thousands of years of history shaped these monuments and how they affect the soul of who we are.

Anyone interested, can come and watch the presentation. Please give me a call for any further information.

I will be sending out a reminder and the final schedule when it is available.
