Next rug-braiding session at the hall will be Monday June 10, 7 p.m. Bring scissors and some heavy fabrics if you have them (denim or cord jeans, heavier weight drapes, table cloths, etc.) We’ll work on a rug for the hall and you will acquire the skills to make your own rug in the process.
When Lunenburg was founded in 1753, the area we now know as the rest of Canada was sparsely occupied by Europeans. Other than the Acadian regions and Quebec, not much was going on in terms of settlement. Toronto, for example, was a French trading post in 1750. By extension, some of the oldest houses in English Canada are in Lunenburg County.
Join us at the Broad Cove Hall (7147 Highway 331) on July 4, 7 p.m., when Architect Syd Dumaresq will give an entertaining and informal walk through the Lunenburg County he loves.The illustrated talk will include slides of houses in the Broad Cove – Petite Riviere area.
