Join us on Monday, February 24 for a special edition of Soups and Sides, featuring Executive Director of the Africville Museum, Juanita Peters. An award-winning writer and director of multiple documentaries including Hannah’s Story, I Made A Vow and Africville Can’t Stop Now, Peters will talk about African Nova Scotian and Black Loyalist history in the valley.

Soups and Sides is a weekly drop-in that welcomes community members to the Wolfville Farmers’ Market for soup and a side of community-building activities on Monday evenings from 5 - 6:30pm. The program was developed by Acadia students and is supported by the Town, Acadia University and the Wolfville Farmers’ Market to help people build relationships while enjoying equitable access to delicious food that has been prepared by community chef, Ayzhia Beaton. Each week, leftover soups are donated to the ASU Food Cupboard in support of Acadia students.
