Dear Friends of UMIH, It’s another exciting three-event week at the Institute for the Humanities. We hope you will find time to join us. Here is what we are looking forward to: TODAY (Monday Oct. 28) at 3:45, join us for a special screening of a NYC stage performance of Lord Byron’s SARDANAPALUS. This screening, which will take place in TIER 408, will be moderated by Dr. Michelle Faubert. UMIH is delighted to partner with the Byron Society of America and the Keats-Shelley Association of America to bring this screening to our campus. Admission and popcorn are free for all. UMIH’s second CRAFTERNOON takes place on Wednesday (Oct. 30). Please join us at 2:30 to learn how to make a rug (or similarly useful item) out of repurposed fabric. We’ll provide the supplies and the instructions you’ll need. There is no cost; zero experience is required; all are welcome. You are, of course, welcome to bring a craft of your own. We’ll meet in Tier 409. And... on Friday Nov. 1 at 2:30, with thanks to Dr. Erin Keating, two speakers from Editors Canada will make a virtual visit to UMIH for a career-themed event: “SO YOU WANT TO BE A PROFESSIONAL EDITOR? A Discussion with Lisa Hislop and Michelle Waitzman from Editors Canada.” Send an email to vanessa.warne@umanitoba.ca to request your copy of the Zoom link. All are welcome. With best wishes for the week ahead!
