We host a wide variety of events during the year, including lectures, workshops, and guided tours. Below are some current and past events.
This presentation is based on the 2-volume publication, researched and created by CCHA Past President Noel Stewart and designed by Champlain historian David Patrick that documents the County veterans who fought in the Great War and those on the home front who supported the county soldiers and gave them a grand welcome home. Presented by CCHA Director Helen Nerska.
The presentation with CCHA Director Helen Nerska will take participants back to a period more than 200 years ago to learn about the short-lived history of the Redford Glass Company. Although the company was in business for only 20 years they produced products that demonstrated unique skilled craftsmanship and that survive to this day. By the end of the presentation participants will see how the Company, that was once famous and esteemed for its crown glass windowpanes, has become synonymous with unique and priceless glassware.
Women received the right to vote across the nation in 1920 but not the right to be on a jury until years later. Learn the struggle for and gradual acceptance of women on juries. With Helen Nerska, CCHA Director.
