Spontaneous Jazz on S.S. Keewatin

Just over a month ago, S.S. Keewatin, the historic luxury cruise ship, returned to Port McNicoll after 46 years amid much fanfare.  Recently, Huronia Museum was granted a special tour of the interior of Keewatin, and our cameras were rolling.

During the tour, the Keewatin’s Eric Conroy and Huronia Museum’s own Nahanni Born struck up a spontaneous tune right on the floor of the Flowerpot Lounge.

Beginning next week, Huronia Museum will be posting portions of our tour right here at HuroniaMuseum.com as well as on our Facebook page and YouTube channel.  Be sure to check them out!
