A Friendly Chat

We’re pleased to be presenting The History of Pyrates and Privateers in Canada as part o’ the Friends of Battlefield House Lecture Series.

Join us for some often ignored (and frequently contentious) history about Pyrates & Privateers on the Great Lakes and the Atlantic Coast. From The War of 1812 to The Welland Canal, high stakes to Venison Steaks – as we always say, “Real Pyrates, Real History!”

When: Tuesday 12 March, 7:30 pm – 9:00 pm

Where: Battlefield House Museum & Park (Administration Bldg.), 77 King Street West, Stoney Creek, ON (MAP)

Entrance at the rear of the Nash-Jackson House – through the Gift Shop.

Cost: $2 for Non-Members (free for Members). Free Parking on the grounds.
