Burlington has two museum locations, the Joseph Brant Museum and the Ireland House Museum. The Joseph Brant Museum was opened in 1942 in a replica of Joseph Brant's original home and has become a community landmark through the years, displaying Burlington's culture and heritage with a collection of 25,000 items. Expanded and reopened in 2019, the Museum features both themed permanent and travelling exhibitions in the new exhibit space. For Heritage Week, the travelling exhibit, Canada’s Waterscapes, will offer insights into our natural heritage. In the evening, step back in time and explore Burlington’s past with a film screening of “The Eyes of Memory.” Produced by Burlington-based film company Cinema 16, the film premiered in 1973 for Burlington’s Centennial celebrations. Regular Museum admission will apply to enter galleries when open during the day. Free evening movie screening (6 p.m. and 6:45 p.m. in Shoreline Room) with attendance including light refreshments and popcorn (while supplies last). In-person with a maximum of 40 people per screening time. Registration online.
