Hosted by Cameron MacDonald, Heritage Coordinator for Confederation Centre of the Arts and presented in partnership with Immigration and Refugee Services Association PEI, this FREE event discusses immigration and its impact on families - something our new musical, MAGGIE explores. From the social influences that influence the decision to immigrate, to the spectrum of emotions felt by family members leaving and the ones staying behind, many Islanders have experienced the complexities of this life-changing event.
