In June, we welcomed Doors Open Waterloo Region into the Grace Schmidt Room to film an episode for this year’s event. The True North Communications team, led by Kelly Spencer, were true professionals. Their infectious enthusiasm made the experience fun and enjoyable. I wanted to thank them for inviting the Grace Schmidt Room to take part in Doors Open – it truly has been an honour.
A big tip of the hat and thank you goes to my colleague, Lauren, for her creative and playful #ArchivesAtoZ selections on Twitter which caught the eye of Kelly and her team. Bridget, Trevor, Ingrid and Valerie also worked diligently behind the scenes to get the archives and collections ready for filming.
Be sure to follow Doors Open Waterloo Region as the new 2022 episodes are released in September. Our episode will be released on Saturday September 10, 2022 at 10am.
