Why Go to War? A Community Dialogue at the Firehall Arts Centre

You are invited to the first in a series of community dialogues this Sunday at the Firehall Arts Centre:

Come tour the historic Firehall building and join us for the first of our three-part series of Community Dialogue Sessions focusing on different aspects of war.

Featuring WWII veterans including Wes Lowe, Frank Wong, George Chow and author and Chinese Canadian Museum Curator Larry Wong, this weekend's talk will look at the motivations behind why individuals chose to enlist. Excerpts from the documentary film "Unwanted Soldiers" will be shown.

You are invited on a guided tour of the Firehall at 2 p.m.

Community Dialogue Session: Why Go To War? begins at 3pm

Created to compliment the Firehall's production on VIMY opening November 2, the following two dialogue sessions in the series will take place October 17 and 24 and cover the topics of the evolution of art at war and the different roles of women during war.
