Episode Synopsis

E101 – Hats

Did you ever notice that a simple information search can lead you in strange and wonderful directions? As in Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, historical research can lead you down a winding rabbit hole that might take you off your original path and lead you to new and amazing historical places!

This podcast starts with that premise.

Adrian Petry, Visitors Services Coordinator and Kathleen Powell, Supervisor of Historical Services and Curator, both from the St. Catharines Museum and Welland Canals Centre, have challenged each other to explore the weird and wonderful places that one hour of research on a topic will take them. Join them as they share their findings!

For their inaugural podcast, and in honour of the official opening of the Welland Canal celebrated with the Top Hat Ceremony on March 29th, they have started their One Hour in the Past with an homage to hats!

Take listen and share with us a few of the fun things you know about hats!
