Hamilton: a guidebook from memory is a community art project towards the creation of a physical 'guidebook' of Hamilton. Unlike traditional tourist guides which highlight local attractions, this book is an invitation to experience our city through the stories of our neighbours. 

Whether you've lived in Hamilton your entire life, or have simply stopped by for a visit, we invite you to submit memories connected to places in our city. 

 

What places in our city hold significance for you? What is your earliest memory in Hamilton? What memories continue to linger or haunt your street, your neighbourhood, your commute to work?

Submissions for this project are now closed, but please feel free to reach out if you're interested in the project! The published book, Hamilton: a guidebook from memory can be purchased at the link below.
