This December, join us to celebrate the past year with a creative social session. We will explore the gallery and grounds at the McMichael as we find inspiration together. Back in the studio we will use our findings to create a personal painting inspired by what the McMichael means to us! Participants are encouraged to bring their favourite artworks from the past year to share with their peers in an exhibition-style celebration.

Samedi, le 13 decembre 2025 | 10 h 30 à 12 h 30

Join McMichael Conservator Alison Douglas and Head of Collections/Senior Registrar Christine Braun for an afternoon of behind-the-scenes insights into their work and special projects in the fields of conservation and collections.

This intimate event offers McMichael Members a unique opportunity to hear directly from our talented staff as they share their expertise, passions, and insights.

Bach's works for solo violin and solo cello have long been considered centerpieces of string repertoire, and they offer an experience that is akin to taking a meditative walk in the woods. Each step reveals something new, and we discover a quiet place to process our thoughts and emotions. Join Tafelmusik cellist Keiran Campbell in an exploration of this remarkable repertoire, played on both four and five-string cellos.
