From Ship to Shore: Exploring Oshawa's Relationship with Lake Ontario

Oshawa Museum 2023

For centuries, the waterways of the Oshawa Creek and Lake Ontario provided Indigenous Peoples and settlers with a natural navigation system, which became the backdrop for the commercial, agricultural and residential development that would later become the City of Oshawa. This virtual exhibition celebrates the city’s port history and maritime industry, highlighting never-before-seen stories of Oshawa’s waterfront at work and at play.
