Members Only Tour – Get the Smell of the House Off Ya

New roads. New adventures.

Just in time for summer, take a behind the scenes dive into the Archives to explore early tourism and “staycation culture” in post Confederation Newfoundland and Labrador.

Guided by Archivist Beverly Bennett sharing rarely seen materials, discover how locals and adventure tourists alike embraced the outdoors—and that enduring urge to “get the smell of the house off ya.”

Cost: $20 plus HST (Members Only). Ticket sales open Thursday, May 7 at 10:30 am. Please call 709-757-8090 to reserve your ticket.
