Join us on Thursday, November 24th, 2022 at 9pm at Table Rock Welcome Centre by the falls to kick off the 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence. This special evening will feature speakers, entertainment, refreshments and a short walk to the falls for the candle light vigil to watch the Canadian side of Niagara Falls turn orange in solidarity. We are so honoured to have Dr. Robyn Bourgeois as our guest speaker and the musical stylings of Indigenous-led drum and singing group Strong Water Singers. Click here to find out more!
