A worthwhile visit to learn about a too often forgotten part of our Canadian history. I really enjoyed the local connection of the stories featured. We have good friends with personal connections to the region, which made the visit more meaningful.
Such a rich collection of Black Canadian history. Wonderfully curated and expertly displayed.
Excellent, interesting, informative tour that lasted about 45 minutes, perfect length. A fair and correct description of the life experienced by Black Americans in Canada. Refreshing.Learned a lot. A tour every Canadian should take to learn about an interesting, often missed, chapter in our history.
Cheers to this community for making this museum happen!
Good Covid safety in place. Book your tour.
Very educational. Informative and pleasant

This museum is amazing and sobering at the same time. I thoroughly enjoyed learning about the blacks that escaped to Canada from slavery in the US and how they acclimated to life there. It's very small and funded mostly by donations but still a must visit if in the Ontario area.
