Poverty and Prosperity: A Walk Down Early 1900s Broadway
What was life like for people in Winnipeg 100 years ago? This city was quite different back then and had some major waves in growth. From being the "Gateway to the West" and "Chicago of the North" to the present day, Winnipeg's foundations have been shaped by classism, inequality, and histories both forgotten and overlooked.

This walking tour of downtown explores Winnipeg's roots and foundations, from periods of major growth to the present day. Join us to hear stories of the city and learn how Winnipeg became the city it is today.
Tours will proceed, rain or shine, but may be cancelled at the discretion of the guide in the event of unsafe conditions such as extreme heat or lightning.
The Tour is made possible thanks to support from Manitoba Sport, Culture, Heritage, and Tourism

This tour departs from the Alloway Arch at the Forks and ends at Dalnavert Museum. You may wish to arrive early to ensure you have time to find parking and use the washroom before the tour departs. This is an outdoor walking tour. Please dress for the weather. You may wish to bring a water bottle.

Some stops may have seating available. The tour can be modified to avoid stairs, but uneven terrain and sidewalks in poor condition may be challenging. Please contact us if you have questions related to the mobility requirements of this tour.

Architect John D. Atchison: Hidden Treasures Walking Tour
Join researcher and writer Gail Perry for a new walking tour of buildings designed by the prolific and accomplished architect John D. Atchison. Born in Illinois and trained in Chicago, Atchison later worked with “the father of the American skyscraper”, William Le Baron Jenney. After working in Chicago for 11 years (including on the 1893 Columbian World Exposition) he moved to Winnipeg in 1905.

In under twenty years John D. Atchison shaped the backdrop of Winnipeg, designing over 160 buildings (60 of them still in use) and advocated for its green and monumental spaces. He was a proponent of the City Beautiful Movement, a member of several civic planning committees and an advocate for the mall approach to the Legislative Building.

The Life and Work of David Wynyard Bellhouse
Trained as an architect in Bruges, Belgium and London, England, David Wynyard Bellhouse (1861 – 1952) immigrated to Manitoba in 1883 where he initially farmed near Cypress River. He moved to Winnipeg in about 1896 where he was able to set up his practice as an architect.

I will describe his building background in England and his own work in the building industry in Manitoba, illustrated with several examples that are mostly standing today. In Winnipeg, Bellhouse designed factories and warehouses in and near the Exchange District, apartment buildings, churches, and houses, mainly for Winnipeg’s wealthy living in Armstrong’s Point and Crescentwood.

Speaker: Born in Winnipeg, but finding employment in London, Ontario, David R. Bellhouse is a retired academic. He is the author of three academic books on the history of probability and statistics and of five self-published books on the history of his family. Among other awards, he has been made an honoured alumnus of the Faculty of Science of the University of Manitoba

The Brothers Quay: Selected Shorts (WAG Rooftop Retreat)
Since the late 1970s identical twins Stephen and Timothy Quay have created an eerie series of short films using puppetry and stop motion animation that have spawned an enormous cult following. Their brilliant use of camera movement, typography, lighting and set design create a disturbing, unforgettable landscape. This mesmerizing program includes their masterful film Street of Crocodiles, which Terry Gilliam selected as one of the ten best animated films of all time.

Enhance your rooftop experience with a dinner from SMITH, the award-winning restaurant from Inn at the Forks. Cash bar featuring select beer, wine and specialty cocktails available.

The Pride & Prejudice Ball ~ Winnipeg (2020) · Hosted by Lady Jane Productions

Live in History, and imagine yourself transported to Regency England, circa 1815.  It's the world of Jane Austen, where Mr. Darcy and Miss Elizabeth Bennett are dancing by candlelight at the Netherfield Ball, where military heroes such as the Duke of Wellington have returned triumphant from the Napoleonic War, where there is dancing to live music, and where a frothy cup of syllabub is yours to sip, surrounded by the sight of elegant, bejewelled ladies and dashing gentlemen ... all without the use of a time machine.

New for 2020:  a light, pre-Ball Dinner  (5:00-6:15 pm)
Enjoy a Regency era-inspired, light dinner of Regency White Soup, the Fort Garry's famous bread, Regency Greens (salad), and beautiful Beef Stew.  
A Vegetarian meal of Mulligatawny Soup with a Vegetable tart is an option.  

No partner is necessary and no dance experience required. A dance partner is easily acquired, as it was commonplace in this period for people to dance with different partners.
