UPCOMING EVENTS
Watch here for events to celebrate International Women's Day, March 8.
October is Women’s History Month in Canada!
In 2024, the Chairs Circle celebrated with events celebrating hidden heritage in PEI. See below for some highlights from our workshop day and open house.
Hidden Heritage Workshop
To celebrate 2024 Women's History Month, the Chairs Circle for Gender Equality hosted workshops on “Bringing to Light Hidden Heritage.”
Using the model of the Black Women's History Project created for Island schools, the workshop explored ways to deepen our understandings of heritage and present hidden histories for our communities. The workshop brought together educators and members of the public to share more diverse stories of our past.
Open House
Following the "Hidden Heritage" workshop, the Chairs Circle hosted a casual open house.
It was our pleasure to welcome Minister Responsible for the Status of Women and representatives of the Interministerial Women's Secretariat among the other guests at the open house.
