Looking for a welcoming place to connect, learn, and have fun? Our Community Connections series is a free monthly gathering designed to spark connections, ignite curiosity, and light up your day through conversation, activities, refreshments, and engaging guest speakers.
Join us on the first Monday of each month from 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM at 700 10th Street East, Owen Sound. Whether you’re looking to meet new people, discover local resources, learn something new, or simply enjoy an afternoon out, everyone is welcome.
Each month, we’ll feature a different guest speaker and topic, offering opportunities to explore new ideas, hear from local experts, and build meaningful connections within the community.
October's Guest Speaker
Zack McLean, Curator, Community Waterfront and Heritage Centre.
Owen Sound is a rare example of a commercially active Georgian Bay port, but what brings ships to the harbour? Zack will share “Today’s Visitors” and take a look at the ships that come through Owen Sound, what brings them here, and the historic roots of their trade.
