The magic lantern show by “Professor” Lindsay Lambert will combine his skill as a performer and his love of history and expertise in vintage light and photography. The comment of one of his friends sums it up best: “You take things that are old and dead and make them live again in new and interesting ways.” The room at the back of Perkins restaurant, 1130 St. Laurent Blvd., adjacent to St. Laurent shopping centre TIME: the room has been reserved for us from 4:30p.m.-8p.m. So there will be time to eat and network until our speaker begins to talk at 7p.m.
