During Ontario Culture Days Jody Pilon will be introducing her work in progress ‘The Hanky Project’. Visitors will learn about the collective sacrifices of les filles du roi, also known as the king’s daughters, and gain an understanding of these little known figures in Canadian History.
Join Jody as she stitches the 768 names of les filles du roi onto vintage handkerchiefs. Hand stitching by nature is laborious and forces us to slow down. In this slowness, we can consider our own thoughts and feelings and how we exchange with others and operate in the world. Visitor participation in stitching is welcome.
