My public history and art exhibition Movimento Perpétuo: The Portuguese Diaspora in Canada is at the Toronto Metro Hall from September 11 to 22.

It consists of 12 thematic panels; 6 display cases with multiples artifacts crowdsourced from community partners; 3 television sets screening films and archival footage; multiple QR-activated digital content; and artwork from 7 Portuguese-Canadian artists based in Toronto.Admission is free. All are welcome.

This project is an initiative of the Embassy of Portugal in Canada, supported by the Camões I.P., and LIUNA Local 183. I was the project manager, curator, lead researcher, and graphic and web designer of this project, which was produced under my company Tempo Historical Consulting.
