SUMMARY:MIFF: Meaford International Film Festival
DESCRIPTION:Meaford International Film Festival Announces Line-up for 20th Anniversary \nMEAFORD – July 7\, 2026 – Celebrating its 20th anniversary\, the Meaford International Film Festival (MIFF) returns to Meaford Hall this fall\, running from September 25-27. The festival\, which features international\, award-winning films and special guest interviews\, is a fundraiser for the Meaford Culture Foundation\, which supports arts and culture programs in the community. \nThis year’s festival will include two Oscar-winning documentaries. In No Other Land\, Palestinian activist Basel Adra films his community being destroyed by Israel’s occupation. During his efforts\, he builds an unlikely friendship with Yuval Abraham\, an Israeli journalist\, who joins his fight. The two men accepted the Best Documentary Feature Oscar in 2025.  \nMr. Nobody Against Putin\, the 2026 Oscar winner in the same category\, will also be shown. The film is made by Pavel Talankin\, a Russian teacher/videographer who is forced to document his school’s delivery of the new government-mandated propaganda curriculum about the Ukraine war. \nThe festival will close with the BAFTA winning film I Swear which tells the inspiring life story of John Davidson\, notable Tourette’s Syndrome campaigner.  \n“I’m thrilled to be involved with MIFF for this milestone edition and grateful to be bringing these important films to our audiences. It is truly inspiring what some filmmakers have to go through to tell their stories\,” said Anna den Hengst\, Artistic Director\, MIFF. “This year’s selection will make our audiences laugh and cry\, and most importantly\, think.” \nOther films in this year’s selection include The President’s Cake\, Iraq’s official 2026 Oscar entry\, and Canadian film Still Mine starring James Cromwell.  Each screening at MIFF will be accompanied by a short film by an emerging filmmaker from the Grey Bruce Youth Film Festival. \nPart of what makes MIFF a unique film festival are the special dinners hosted at Meaford Hall ahead of each evening screening. Brasserie Lovebird\, Station 87 and The Nomad Home Chef are the three restaurants hosting this year’s dinners. Each evening screening will also be followed by an after-party in the historic Meaford Hall galleries. \nMore information about this year’s MIFF\, including full film line-up\, restaurant details and tickets\, is available at www.meafordfilmfest.ca. \nPress Contact:\nAnna den Hengst\, Artistic Director\nTel: 705-351-3227

SUMMARY:BALL Lecture Series: Optimal aging
DESCRIPTION:You Don’t Have to Be a Musician: How Everyday Music-Making Supports Healthy Aging\nRecreational music participation offers an accessible and engaging pathway to healthy aging. Active involvement in music has been shown to enhance auditory processing\, strengthen attentional control\, and improve speech perception in noise—a persistent challenge for older adults\, especially those with age-related hearing loss. In this talk\, I will highlight findings from my lab and others demonstrating that group singing\, even among individuals with no prior musical training\, can lead to measurable benefits over relatively short periods of participation. Inclusive community singing programs—such as those developed in the SingWell initiative—show particular promise\, providing safe\, judgment-free spaces where older adults of all abilities can experience the health\, communication\, and social gains that come from singing together. Beyond auditory improvements\, group singing supports vocal strength\, respiratory coordination\, emotional well-being\, and social connectedness. Collectively\, this research positions recreational music-making as a scalable\, inclusive approach to enhancing communication and quality of life in older adulthood. \nLecturer –  Dr. Frank Russo\nFrank Russo is a Full Professor of Psychology at Toronto Metropolitan University\, where he directs the Science of Music Auditory Research and Technology (SMART) Lab. He is also the Scientific Director of SingWell\, an international consortium on singing\, communication\, and wellbeing. With 100+ publications and $10M+ in funding\, he is a leading researcher in auditory neuroscience\, with particular expertise in topics concerning music\, hearing\, and speech. \n\nhttps://www.torontomu.ca/psychology/about-us/our-people/faculty/frank-russo/
