Engaging Evening
In 2016, a set of human remains were found in a Belgian field with a clue indicating they could be a Royal Newfoundland Regiment soldier. The search and work to identify him would involve a team of international experts, including Provincial Archivist/Director Greg Walsh from The Rooms who was asked to help.
Join Greg in this presentation as he describes the Archival work done to solve the 103 year old mystery, and detail how he helped identify the Royal Newfoundland Regiment soldier while also bringing closure to a proud Newfoundland family.

Today's Events & Programs
Winter may be here, but there’s no need to stay home!
Join us at The Rooms to exercise and socialize during this colder and drearier time of year. While strolling throughout the building and enjoying both the exhibitions and the views, participants will focus on a different spotlight item from our collection each week. After our stroll, staff will lead a brief discussion on the weekly spotlight, and then everyone is encouraged to stay and socialize with friends new and old.
Following the Senior's Stroll, we will open our art gallery classroom for a guided art activity. All materials are provided, and everyone is welcome to attend.
No registration is needed. Included with the cost of admission ($7.80 plus HST for seniors), free for members.
