IMMIGRANT MEMORIES OF BRANTFORD - Chinese Community

Brant Theatre Workshops (BTW), the Canadian Industrial Heritage Centre (CIHC), Laurier Brantford , Brant Historical Society and The Brant County Museum are sponsoring this event. These same partners enlivened the Jewish immigrant experience in 2019 which attracted the attention of the CBC and filled the Stephen Kun Theatre at Laurier Brantford while breaking all attendance records at the Brant County Museum. In 2021 “Immigrant Memories of Brantford” brought “The Italians Arrival” to Brantford’s “Rossini Lodge” and a packed house. We are proud to announce our next event – IMMIGRANT MEMORIES OF BRANTFORD:  CHINESE COMMUNITY:  A day long theatrical/heritage experience on Sat.
