Upcoming programs at the Heritage Centre

The Heritage Centre in Cayuga still has two more programs available for January.

Tuesday, Jan. 24 (6 p.m.) – Workshop: Ancestors in the Attic
This workshop is for anyone looking to find long-lost relatives who may be struggling with the process. Utilizing the archives and online resources, participants will learn how to find their family history in traditional and non-traditional places.

Wednesday, Jan. 25 (1 p.m.) – Tea and Presentation: Cooking up History – Historical Recipe Books
This presentation features a traditional afternoon tea followed by a talk on historical recipe books. Cookbooks from the 17th century and earlier tend to be directed toward professional chefs. By the 18th and 19th centuries, cookbooks were addressed to home cooks and included recipes for ordinary daily food and celebration foods.

The cost for the workshop is $10 per person and the afternoon tea is $15 per person. Pre-registration is required for all programs. Register online or in person at the Haldimand County Administration Building, 53 Thorburn Street South, Cayuga.

All programs take place at the Cayuga Library + Heritage Centre, located at 19 Talbot Street West. For more information, contact the Heritage Centre at (905) 318-5932, ext. 6613 or email museums@haldimandcounty.on.ca.
