Saga Connections #1: Kinmount, An Experiment in Settlement

Our first "ICCT Saga Connections" event will be on December 3, 2020 and will feature the saga of the first Icelanders who came to settle in Ontario in 1874. Kinmount: An Experiment in Settlement involved hardship, tragedy and endurance. It’s a thought-provoking story and a great place to launch our Saga Connections seminars – with the beginning of our Icelandic-Canadian roots.

Join ICCT Vice President Gwen Morgan as she hosts this live webinar on this compelling topic. Joining Gwen will be speakers Don Gislason, author of "Kinmount: An Experiment in Settlement", Guy Scott, Diane Austin and Gudrun Girgis.
