Canadian Art & Literature History

Summer is the perfect time to pull out some classic books, but you can go a step further and visit the homes of famous Canadian authors to gain a whole new perspective on your favourite reads. Historic places hold amazing stories within their walls and have a special skill of transporting visitors to a different place and time, just like a great book. The homes of famous Canadian authors and artists allow us to step into their minds and works – giving us a more personal connection to the classics we’ve been reading all our lives.
