AFTER THE CREDITS: JOHN WARE RECLAIMED
Friday, October 9, 2026 | Zeidler Hall
A film by Cheryl Foggo | National Film Board of Canada
Presented by Lulo Event Services
His name is on a ridge, a creek and a school, and most Albertans couldn't tell you who he was. John Ware Reclaimed is Cheryl Foggo's NFB documentary about the Black cowboy who helped build Alberta's ranching industry. We're screening it during Canadian Finals Rodeo Week, because western culture belongs to everyone. Then we're sticking around to talk about what we watched.
This is the first edition of After the Credits, an Edmonton film series built around what happens once the film ends: one film, one room for one real conversation.
