The Chimczuk museum is celebrating the Town of Riverside's 100th anniversary.
A new exhibit opened Saturday highlighting the town's history. This exhibition will examine and celebrate the history of Riverside from early French settlement to the rum-running and speakeasies of the 1920s to its annexation.
The Town of Riverside was incorporated on May 3, 1921 and was eventually annexed by the City of Windsor in 1966.
To honour the opening of the new exhibit the museum offered free admission on Saturday, April 2.
Museum Windsor will continue its celebration of the Town of Riverside by hosting a walking tour on Saturday, April, 23. The tour will highlight some of the early French families in the area, interesting architecture, the town’s relationship with the Detroit River, and some Prohibition era stories. Tickets to the tour are $5.50 and can be purchased by calling 519-253-1812.
