The Board of Directors and Staff would like to invite you to join us on Saturday, September 27th, 2008 at 1.00 p.m. in our Huron Ouendat Village to help us celebrate the re-opening of the longhouse, which has undergone some major renovations over the past summer season. This is the remaining longhouse to have survived the fire of 2007 and has been completely refurbished with a new exterior and interior.
This exhibit re-development was a partnership project between the Huronia Museum, the Ogemawahj Tribal Council and funded in part by the Government of Canada through the Department of Canadian Heritage Museum Assistance Program.
We will begin our afternoon with a few brief words from Board Chairman and partners on the project followed by a ribbon cutting ceremony and tour through the longhouse. Our staff will be preparing a special treat for our guests with fresh bannock and cranberry jam for visitors. Of course there will be activities for the kids as well! Please bring your friends and family along for this very special day and help us celebrate the re-opening of this well-loved exhibit at the museum.
if you have any questions or would like further information, please do not hesitate to contact us.
We hope you are able to join us!
