These organizations share various connections to the College.
Brubacher House
The Brubacher Farm House Museum is a distinguished home built in 1850
by John E. Brubacher, a Pennsylvania German Mennonite settler. In 1979
the University of Waterloo officially opened the house as a museum in
recognition of the University's location on what was once Mennonite farmland.
The museum is operated by Conrad Grebel University College and the Mennonite
Historical Society of Ontario.
Centre for Family
Business
The goals of the Centre for Family Business are to help build strong,
profitable companies by strengthening and maintaining healthy families.
A unique combination of business and family resources make the Centre
a vital authority for family enterprises.
Project Ploughshares
Since its founding in 1976, Project Ploughshares has promoted the concept
of "common security": that security is the product of mutuality,
not competition; that peace must be nurtured rather than guarded; that
stability requires the reduction of threat and elevation of trust; and
that sustainability depends on participatory decision-making rather than
on exclusion and control.
Project Ploughshares promotes disarmament and demilitarization, the peaceful
resolution of political conflict, and the pursuit of security based on
equity, justice, and a sustainable environment.
DaCapo
Chamber Choir
DaCapo is a community chamber choir formed in the fall of 1998. The choir
began as a group of 13 singers dedicated to exploring unaccompanied music
mainly of the 20th Century, and has now stabilized at sixteen singers,
four per section. The performance season consists of three annual concerts
in Kitchener-Waterloo, one in fall around Remembrance Day, a mid-winter
and a spring concert. Additionally, the choir performs on an ad hoc basis
at other events.
Ontario Mennonite Music
Camp
Offered each August, Ontario Mennonite Music Camp is a two-week, live-in
musical experience at the College. The camp provides musically motivated
children between the ages of twelve and sixteen with an appreciation for
the musical heritage of the Christian church.
Inter-Mennonite
Children's Choir
The Inter-Mennonite Children's Choir provides an opportunity for children
age eight to sixteen to enjoy singing and performing in the context of
a choir school. The Children's Choir is administered by a group of parent
volunteers.
