Events & Programs
Voices from the First World War
Join us as we bring history to life through a dramatized reading of original letters and diary entries from the First World War era.
Through the words of soldiers, nurses, and those who remained on the Homefront, this program offers an intimate glimpse into the hopes, fears, and resilience of those who lived through one of the most defining conflicts of the 20th century. These authentic voices—preserved in letters and journals—reveal the deeply human side of war, from the trenches to the hearth.
Cost: $12 plus HST. Free for Rooms members. Get your tickets online or by calling (709) 757-8090.
