Power and Rebellion: An Anniversary Walk

WHEN: Saturday August 11, 2012
WHERE: Inside the gates of the St. James Cemetery
(Parliament Street, north of Wellesley Street, east side)
TIME: 1:30 pm

2012 not only marks the bicentennial of the War of 1812, it is also the 175th anniversary of the Rebellion of 1837. Come hear the story of the Rebellion like you’ve never heard it before by standing by the grave of many of the main actors on both sides of the conflict. This walk will take you to both Cabbagetown cemeteries: first the St. James Cemetery and then the Necropolis. Both cemeteries are only a few blocks from each other.
