Indigenous History Month: History in Photos
by Shelby Smith and Lori Nelson
To celebrate Indigenous History Month we are sharing some of our favourite photographs from the Lake of the Woods Museum’s extensive collection on social media. We have compiled all of the photos and captions here, and hope that you will enjoy if you missed out on Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter!

The Lake of the Woods Museum is always looking to add more historical photographs to our collection. If you have historic photographs from Kenora and the surrounding areas that you think we might be interested in, please contact us.
