Events

We’ve invited spiders and their arthropod friends to crawl on over for a visit this winter.

Explore amazing adaptations and behaviours of spiders and other many-legged creatures in two interactive exhibits and daily programs for all ages.

In Spiders Alive!, visitors can explore spider anatomy and evolutionary history, learn about their signature traits — venom and silk-making — and be surprised by little-known defense mechanisms such as mimicry and noise-making. In addition to live arachnids representing approximately 17 species, the exhibition includes larger-than-life models of spiders, a climbable spider model 50 times life size, and a rare 100-million-year-old fossil of a spider in limestone.

ANDRE BISSON
When one thinks of all the great performers of soul and rhythm & blues music, one doesn’t usually associate it with a young man from Northern Ontario – until they meet André Bisson. The award winning composer, arranger, guitar player and vocalist is one of the hardest working musicians around. Soulful, talented and sharp Bisson was clearly born with a passion for music and performing, as well as the smarts and talent to pull it all together and build a large following in Southern Ontario and beyond.

Since 2005 Andre Bisson has been performing his unique blend of original Rhythm & Blues and Soul Music throughout Canada, USA, and Europe. Andre has recorded, composed and arranged 8 studio and award winning albums that have reached orchestrations of up to 20 pieces and that has led to several international tours and sold out concerts. Notably Andre won the Male Vocalist of year award for the 2015 Hamilton Blues Awards. He was also nominated for a 2017 Maple Blues Awards, and a 2018 Hamilton Arts Award as an established artist.
