Geared towards children ages 6-10 (Grades 1-4), this activity will take place in English with French questions always welcomed. The event will give the young participants a chance to think about their favourite foods in relation to the love they have for their favourite person. Gillian Sze will read her picture book, My Love for You Is Always, and then invited participants to draw, write and afterwards share what they have done in a show-and-tell with the author and others. The required art/writing materials will be supplied.


Gillian Sze is the author of multiple poetry collections and picture books, including My Love for You Is Always (illustrated by Michelle Lee) and You Are My Favourite Color (illustrated by Nina Mata). She has studied Creative Writing and English Literature and received a PhD in études anglaises from Université de Montréal. Originally from Winnipeg, she now resides in Montreal where she teaches creative writing and literature.

Centre d'histoire vivante Greenwood

Centre d'histoire vivante Greenwood is a historic home and garden that offers visitors an unparalleled vision of the region’s past. Built on the banks of Lac des Deux-Montagnes in 1732 and expanded in the following years, Greenwood Cottage has been the home of the Delesderniers, Shepherd, and Nobbs families for five generations, two families of fascinating characters whose letters and effects bring life to the house decades later. You will hear their stories as you tour the beautifully conserved property full of period furniture, costumes and important Canadian artifacts; you can even stay for tea on the back porch! The non-profit organization preserves the house and relies on volunteers to allow public access to the house during the summer. The heritage of these generations is a treasure to be shared for all current generations and all those to come.
