This week we are going to interpret Athena as a nonbinary manifestation. Whether pursuing masculine-coded activities like conflict and competition or feminine-coded activities like weaving and homemaking, Athena strove for excellence.
Happy Pride Everyone

Really enjoyed this clip from the Fredericton Region Museum—an early 1900s Edison cylinder gramophone that still works! Amazing to see (and hear) how people experienced recorded sound over a century ago. 🎶

Really enjoyed this from the Fredericton Region Museum. An incredible story of a top hat that made its way home to New Brunswick decades after being bought at a flea market. A small artefact with a surprisingly big journey.

Really enjoyed this story from the Fredericton Region Museum, an advertisement for Johnston & Co. preserved for decades. A great example of how everyday objects can carry so much local history. 📸

Really enjoyed this clip from the Fredericton Region Museum—sharing the story of a late‑1800s tool chest passed down through generations of the McFarland family. A simple object with deep roots in local craft, memory, & place. 🧰

I really enjoyed this video from the Fredericton Region Museum. Donna shares a beautiful hand‑woven basket used for cleaning fiddleheads, along with its story and connection to local tradition. Simple object, rich history. 🌿🧺
