"The Begging Bear" story

In the last twenty-five years the Begging Bear, which stands in front of the Art Gallery of Guelph, has become a landmark in the city.  It has been attired in virtually any costume/clothing imaginable.  This week we are going to learn more about the Begging Bear and other museum artifacts from Dawn Owen.  Dr. Owen is currently Curator at the Guelph Museum and formerly Curator of Contemporary Art at the Art Gallery of Guelph.  This will be an interesting and entertaining meeting.
