Summer Sundays Return to the Bishop's House of Glengarry
May 31st, 2026
Eight Summer Sundays of live music, a scrapbook-worthy Iona connection at a local author’s book launch, and the first signs of the new accessible veranda taking shape — plus a 1939 cistern unearthed along the way. It was a season of milestones at Bishop’s House.
The beautifully renovated Bishop’s House in St. Raphael’s was the perfect venue for an afternoon listening to author Ginette Guy Mayer discuss her new novel The Women of SDG & Akwesasne: True Stories of Extraordinary Lives.
At the Bishop’s House on Sept. 15 at 1:30, author Ginette Guy Mayer will discuss the three extraordinary Glengarry women featured in her new book.
The next free concert, sponsored by SD&G Tourism, is this Sunday, August 5, with Heather Flipsen on violin and Noel Campbell on keyboard.
Classmates drove furniture home to Iona Academy to fulfill a dying alumna’s last wish, 150 people gathered for a garden party honouring founding Treasurer Dane Lanken, and the Bishop’s Parlour welcomed back its Scottish prints and a century-old settee.
Lively garden party in memory of Dane Lanken on the lawn at the Bishop’s House St. Raphael’s. June 10th, 2023 from 1-4pm.
