Virtual Tour of Residential School

Tuesday, August 9, 2022 1:30 pm - 3:00 pm EDT (GMT -04:00)
Mohawk Institute

The virtual tour of the former Mohawk Institute Residential School gives the history of the school from when it opened in 1831 until it closed in 1970. Participants will see different rooms in the school, from the meeting room, the girls’ and boys’ dorms, the third floor, cafeteria, and various rooms in the basement. After the presentation, participants will have the opportunity to ask questions or share comments with the Cultural Interpreter.

The tour will last approximately 90 minutes.

This event is open to all students, staff, and faculty in the Faculty of Health.

There are two ways to participate.  You can register and receive a link to join the tour from wherever you are, or you can register and join us in the Sunlife Auditorium (LHS 1621) to watch with other Faculty of Health members.  Please indicate on the registration form which option you prefer. 

Elder Henry Myeengun and Dean Lili Liu will be in the Sunlife Auditorium starting at 1:00 to welcome participants who would like to join the group. 

The event is free but registration is required.
