In the exhibition Sutures, Eve Tagny and Emii Alrai have stitched together duelling notions of a wound across explosive times and physical space. After injury, a suture weaves broken pieces back into a whole. Its bands pull together, forcing two lacerations to meet as the body recovers from incision. Though rough and imperfect, these markings imply a severing that at once imprint signifiers of new life and healing.

See the village come to life to the sounds of the blacksmith, printing press, looms, and more.

Scugog Heritage Day will take place on Sunday, August 21st, 2022, and run from 11:00am until 4:00pm.

Join us at the Museum Village to celebrate the heritage of Scugog! Visitors will be treated to heritage demonstrations such as blacksmithing, spinning and weaving, and operation of a printing press. Explore the museum’s twelve historic buildings and Ojibway Heritage Interpretive Lands to experience how the settlers and Indigenous peoples of Scugog lived in the 19th century. The young and young-at-heart can take part in crafts, games, and discovery stations throughout the village.
