Region of Waterloo Museums
Summer/Fall 2019
Volume 1 • Issue 3
MUSEUMSMessage from the Manager/Curator
In this issue we reveal two new exhibitions at the Ken Seiling Waterloo Region Museum. The transportation theme is an important one for all Region of Waterloo residents this year, what with the ION launch!
Journey to Space departed in early May and on June 27th we had our launch for Going Places: Past Present Future. You will be amazed at what has been fitted into the Feature Gallery for this exhibition! Animated displays serve to compare and contrast modes of travel throughout the Waterloo Region over time.Our focus this summer and into the fall is on nature. Schneider Haus staff will be tending their newly replanted Schtick garden; the Village will have its gardens in full splendour; and so, too, will the beautiful McDougall Cottage gardens be in bloom – here’s a shout-out to all our talented volunteer gardeners!In September, the Birds of Prey travelling exhibition, toured by the Royal British Columbia Museum, will give visitors the chance to study mounted specimens of vultures, eagles, owls, and more – “eye to eye,” as it were – in the Long-term Gallery of the Ken Seiling Waterloo Region Museum. They’ll be here for the Forest Festival school program, along with some live specimens at special times!You will find staff out and about the community this summer, interpreting displays and engaging visitors in creative (and sometimes tasty!) heritage activities. Look for the Region of Waterloo Museum displays at the following events and learn more about this area’s unique heritage: the Schneider Creek Porch Party; Kidspark (Kitchener); Cambridge Scottish Festival; The Mill Race Festival; Cambridge Fall Fair; Aviation Fun Day at the Waterloo International Airport; and Culture Days. There’s so much to see and do now that summer has arrived!

Highlights from the collectionMembers of the public often approach collection’s staff with one simple question, “What is it”? Most of the time, it’s easy to answer the question, as staff carry a wealth of knowledge in their heads, but there’s the time when an object will stump us.During the mid 1800s to the early 1900s, a huge range of specialty tools and kitchen utensils were available. Often these tools were designed for a specific task or job that may no longer exist, or the tool itself has evolved and no longer resembles the object in question.These mystery items require a great deal of study and research in order to identify them. Sometimes patents are available online, other museums often have similar items in their collections, or collectors’ groups or antique dealers may have the answer.Favourite mystery items are the handmade ones. Some innovative person in the past built a tool or device to help solve a problem. The devices were not patented or mass produced, and often do not resemble anything else at first glance. A case in point is this roofer’s caddy/seat, which would date from between 1890 and 1920. Built from unfinished wood, the caddy is angled so that tools (especially nails) will not fall out. There are metal spikes on the bottom of the caddy to grip the roof and prevent it from sliding off. And the curved seat provided the roofer a place to sit.
Not sure about this? Check out this photograph of a house under construction in Berlin (now Kitchener) around 1900. If you look at the roof under the semi-circular window, you will see a similar device to the one in our collection! While the caddy in the photograph is of a different design, its use is clear and helped to identify a mystery object.

Curatorial newsIn 2014, the Region of Waterloo Museums began using a new collections database – PastPerfect – to record information and images of the over 50,000 artifacts it safeguards for the public. This
project has involved more than simply migrating existing data from the old database to the new one. Digital photography is a major part of the process.
Noah Damaren recently rejoined the curatorial team as Artifact Photographer, and will be with us for six months. Noah previously worked at the Ken Seiling Waterloo Region Museum in a similar role, from March 2016 to December 2017. In addition to his museum collections work, and freelance photography, Noah has worked as a photographer for Waddington’s Auctions. Noah has studied Applied Photography at Sheridan College, as well as Graphic Design at Seneca College.

Birds of PreySeptember 6, 2019 to January 5, 2020
Organized and circulated by the Royal British Columbia Museum, this exhibition highlights birds of prey from across Canada. Birds of prey have been feared and admired by societies throughout the world, but what do we really know about them?

Sophie Drouin Fine Art Mosaics
Storytelling in StoneOn exhibit to September 29, 2019
Sophie Drouin is the 2019 Artist-in-Residence at Schneider Haus National Historic Site. This exhibit showcases her most recent mosaic production. An internationally recognized practitioner of this ancient art form, Drouin received her training in Canada, Italy, France, and the United States.
In her mosaic work, Drouin aspires to convey weightlessness and fluidity, and her pieces at times seem to defy gravity. Her extensive use of many types of stones allows her to play with textures and contrast, as well as rich colour tones and hues.

How did you get the idea to undertake an international internship at the Ken Seiling Waterloo Region Museum?JM: I was looking for something that would combine both my subjects, History and English...my Masters program does require a three-month internship abroad in an English-speaking country. The prospect of working in the Doon Heritage Village was just perfect. How does this internship help you with your university studies?JM: It fulfills the requirements that I have to meet. I could have also just done a study at a university in Canada or the UK but...I thought it would give me more practical experience.What’s your favourite experience at the Village so far?JM: Definitely the interpreting. I like explaining first-hand to visitors what all the things they see in the buildings are about, or where they came from, what their purpose is...and it’s fun for me to talk about these things while actually being dressed like in 1914!
