VICTORIAN MAKING / MAKING VICTORIANS

The Victorian Studies Association of Western Canada will host our 2023 Conference: Victorian Making / Making Victorians in Winnipeg on May 5 and May 6, 2023. The conference, which will be held in Winnipeg’s historic Exchange District, will feature Dr. Tina Young Choi (York University) and Dr. Lorraine Janzen Kooistra (Toronto Metropolitan University) as plenary speakers. Join us not only to explore Victorian Making / Making Victorians but also to celebrate the 50-year anniversaries of both VSAWC and Victorian Review.
