From shipwrecks and lighthouses to ecosystems and water quality, we invite you to explore Kingston’s unique history and the world’s largest inter-connected body of freshwater through our programs and exhibits.
Visit our storefront gallery, step back in time with guided tours of the Kingston Dry Dock and Pumphouse National Historic Site, or try your hand at our new ‘Shipwrights’ puzzle game. Our museum celebrates the maritime heritage of the people and places that relied on the natural resources and shipping channels provided by the Great Lakes region. Explore the significance of the space, the people that worked here and the ships they built, and watch the site come alive as a knowledgeable guide walks you through how the Great Lakes defined Kingston’s future.
Public programs are also available, check out our website for more information.
