Yes! There were women… There still are
In 1929, The Canadian Supreme Court ruled against five women who petitioned to be considered “persons” under the law. The British Privy Council granted their petition, clearing the way for women to serve in Canada’s Senate. Cramahe Township’s Iva Fallis was appointed the first female Conservative Senator in 1935.

2021 - Spirits on Water at Ah!
Art and Heritage Centre of Warkworth (AH!)
Heritage Cramahe is pleased and excited to collaborate with the AH! Gallery of Warkworth to present Spirits on Water: Ships, Sails, and Rum Running on Lake Ontario.
Together we have opened an exhibit that contains elements of two of our previous exhibits: rum running on Lake Ontario, and a general marine history of our area. Even if you visited those two shows at the Heritage Room in Colborne, we hope you will re-visit them in Warkworth, where they have been re-arranged and augmented to fill the excellent space of Warkworth’s historic Memorial Hall.
The collaboration will continue later this Summer, when a very successful AH! show will come to us at the Heritage Room in Colborne. More details later.
The Ah! Gallery is housed at 35 Church St, Warkworth, Ontario, K0K 3K0
The Exhibit runs until March 29th
Hours: Saturday & Sunday from 11am to 4pm.
