Join us for an engaging evening with local author Mark Wilkie, as he shares insights from his five-part historical fiction series, Before the Guns Roared.

Spanning the years leading up to the War of 1812, the series brings to life real ancestral stories rooted in the Niagara region. Drawing on his own family history and experience as a reenactor and guide at Fort Erie, Wilkie blends careful historical research with compelling storytelling.

Through richly illustrated narratives and detailed character biographies, Before the Guns Roared explores the human side of war—revealing the emotional impact of conflict on families, communities and everyday lives.

Perfect for readers of historical fiction, local history enthusiasts, and anyone interested in the stories that shaped our region.

The Usual Suspects are five dedicated music-loving veterans who have been entertaining in the Niagara Region live music circuit for the last dozen years. The band's shows have been very well received, with people commenting on the solid instrumentation and on the soaring multi-part harmonies that have become our trademark. We have a sizable repertoire of tunes at our disposal, and are constantly adding and updating them to suit the needs of the venue. The Usual Suspects will be playing the classic and contemporary songs that your patrons know and love!
