Tues., Apr 6, 2010: Lecture
Topic: "Change and Continuity in Local Architecture: The Wellington County Museum and Archives' Gordon Couling Collection"
Speaker: Elysia De Laurentis, Wellington County Museum

Artist and Professor, Gordon Couling, not only witnessed changes to Guelph's streetscapes and surrounding countryside, but spent years documenting their transformation. This talk will offer a sampling of the thousands of photographs through which he recorded the creation, destruction, and evolution of buildings in Guelph and Wellington County between 1950 and 1983. This collection is an invaluable resource for architectural historians and those interested in the history of their homes.
