Past Events

This fall, take your break and join us for an hour-long interpretive nature walk through the beautiful arboretum. Please remember to dress for the weather, wear comfortable shoes, and bring your water bottle as needed. 

Join an informative and conversational tour of the current exhibitions on view at the Art Gallery of Guelph. Exhibitions include Kept Alive Within Us, an exhibition of work by contemporary Caribbean artists; The Third Scenario, exploring art making through hyphenated conditions that challenge the idea of identity as a fixed entity; and Pieces of a Puzzle: Selected Prints by Carl Beam, an exhibition from the AGG permanent collection.

This summer, learn about honey bees and support the future of honey bee health! The University of Guelph Honey Bee Research Centre is a leader in apiculture, research, and education. Honey bees play a key role in agricultural productivity and ecosystem sustainability by providing pollination services to crops and wild plants. Our mandate is to help honey bees continue this vital work.

Looking to learn more about your U of G Guelph campus? Take your break and join our tour guide, Steve Nyman, Director of Physical Resources, for a stroll by the OVC buildings.

This World Gratitude Day, GREAT at U of G is excited to be RELAUNCHED! 

Take a break and please join us for a fresh, fall breeze Classical Yoga class on U of G's beautiful Johnston Green, on Tuesday, September 19 at 12 P.M. As we harvest the fruits of summer, the natural world begins to fall away in preparation for renewal. At this moment, we invite you to turn toward the light (inner sun) within us as the physical light outside starts waning.
