War on the Lakes


Woot Woot!! Hello!

I wanted to let everyone know about the current exhibit at the Centre for Conversation, which features our very own Great Lakes! The exhibit is called War on the Lakes, and it's all about the War of 1812 which is so fascinating! An artist from Windsor Ontario, named Peter Rindlisbacher, who is known for his marine paintings, documents this historical period beautifully. The exhibit features many not so famous naval battles that took place during the War. I am sure a sense of surprise will arise at all the wonderful prints and one original painting of our very own Great Lakes, during pinnacle battles such as the Battle of Lake Erie. ATTENTION All Brock Students!!! Sir Issac Brock is featured in the Battle of Queenston Heights October 13th 1812, and you can find artist images and posters in the gift shop! Better hurry on over to the Centre for Conversation because the exhibit will not be displayed forever! It runs from November 20, 2010- February 4, 2010
