Assistant Curator, Shawna Butts found an interesting photograph of Polish soldiers training at Camp Kosciuszko in NOTL from the collection at the Polish Army Veterans Association. Can you see why this picture is so funny?

The Museum recently acquired an extensive collection of postcards from Niagara collector, John Burtniak. Our Collections volunteer, John Sayers, has been working his way through the collection, finding interesting pieces as he goes. Here John talks about the importance of knowing the photographer of some Niagara Camp postcards.

As a former employee of the NOTL Museum, Nick Clemens uncovered an unidentified artefact that ended up being an Indigenous pipe with an interesting provenance. He also learned that a similar one had been sold from the collection many years ago.

The Niagara-on-the-Lake Museum's Managing Director/Curator welcomes you to our blog with a look at our organization's past.
