The canal project had many detractors and was doomed to fail at every turn, so how did it succeed (even if behind schedule and over budget)? Adrian Petry, public historian and Visitor Services Coordinator at the St. Catharines Museum, explores the many difficulties experienced in building the First Welland Canal and its first full season of operation in 1830.

Discover the magic of the holiday season at the Niagara Pumphouse Arts Centre’s Annual Holiday Market, where you’ll find a delightful selection of one-of-a-kind, handmade gifts, ornaments, and décor crafted by talented artisans.

Step into the spacious Walker Room gallery, beautifully adorned with Christmas trees decorated with handmade ornaments and products, all available for purchase. Browse an extensive assortment of items, including personal care products, woodwork, jewelry, pottery, glass art, candles, birdhouses, textiles, and much more.

Proceeds from the Holiday Market support programs for children and seniors. Additionally, we welcome donations of non-perishable food items to benefit the Newark Neighbours Food Bank.

Winter at the Market is a celebration of local talent and craftsmanship, offering something special with every booth you explore. Whether you’re searching for a distinctive piece of art, a handcrafted ornament, a delicious tray of artisanal cheeses or scrumptious baked goods for an event, you’ll find products that capture the spirit of the season. Shopping at the market also directly supports small businesses, strengthening the community ties that make the holiday season in St. Catharines so memorable.

Visit with Father Christmas and open hearth cooking demonstration.
