History Moments with Peter Lockyer

History Moments with Peter Lockyer

Join local historian, Peter Lockyer of History Lives Here as he showcases his series of  “History Moments”; filmed vignettes drawn from the rich history of Prince Edward County - early settlement, first industries, prominent people, and significant events, which shaped the history of this special place - and Canada. 

With its cleared land, well-developed rail and shipping industry, industrious farmers and bold entrepreneurs, The County enjoyed successive decades of prosperity. But it has also known hard times. Explore this County history with Peter and maybe a friend or two, who love to tell a good story.

History Moments with Peter Lockyer is apart of the Beyond the Base: A History Story Series.

ABOUT THE VENUE
The Pilot's Lounge

Nestled in the historic Sergeants Mess Hall sits The Pilot's Lounge. This space currently serves as the bar for guests seeing a show in the 177-seat performance space at the opposite end of the venue, but comes alive in unique ways as a casual and cozy lounge and live entertainment space in 2024. Perfect for intimate concerts, comedy shows, or community events, The Pilot's Lounge is complete with an original 1960s red-padded bar and a back games room that used to be the hangout spot for soldiers when the site operated as No. 31 Bombing and Gunnery School during WWII.
