Mackenzie House Celebrates Black History Month

Event Details

This event finished on 25 February 2018

Toronto has a rich legacy in the literature and the newspapers of the early Black community in Ontario. Visit Mackenzie House on weekends in February, and learn more about some of the Black Victorians of Toronto, featuring those who published newspapers during the era. Visitors can take a piece of this important history home when they print a souvenir copy of Mary Ann Shadd Cary’s newspaper, “The Provincial Freeman,” in the re-created 1850’s print shop.

Regular museum admission applies.
