When:
February 7, 2023

Dear Humber Community,

I’m writing today to share that Geneva Gillis, assistant curator with the Lakeshore Grounds Interpretive Centre, is leaving Humber College on February 17, 2023. Geneva will be moving on to the role of Heritage Interpreter - Battlefield House Museum and Park National Historic Site with the City of Hamilton.

Geneva joined the Interpretive Centre in December of 2021 and supported our online work, transition back to in person operations, and return to regular operations with grace and care over the past year. She contributed much to relationship and community development and helped grow our operations through exhibitions, art shows, tours, and partnerships. Geneva has most certainly left her mark and shared her passion for community heritage and local history, and we wish her the absolute best in her future endeavors. 

Please join in me in sharing our most heartfelt congratulations to Geneva (geneva.gillis@humber.ca).

With kindness,

Nadine Finlay (she/her)
Curator, Lakeshore Grounds Interpretive Centre
