About this event
We are welcoming staff from the Amherstburg Freedom Museum for March's Speaker Series, Mary-Katherine Whelan, Curator/Administrator and Dr. Lorene Bridgen-Lennie, Assistant Curator. They will share a pre-recorded tour of the museum space and a video that goes into an overview about the Underground Railroad following one woman's journey from enslavement to freedom in Canada. Afterwards, they will host a Q&A period and would be happy to answer any questions.

Nestled on the shores of Lake Ontario in beautiful Lakeview Park, the OM tells the story of Oshawa from Indigenous inhabitants to present day. Home to Oshawa’s history, the OM is managed by the Oshawa Historical Society.
