Time Travel to Brantford, 1900-1920: Telling Brantford’s Early Immigrant Stories by Christina Han

She will also share how the project led to the creation of “Flashback Downtown Brantford,” a public history event created by her undergraduate students which included multiple exhibits as well as community engagement.
