SUMMARY:Salem Chapel Guided Tour
DESCRIPTION:Our chapter is organizing an IAD event at the Salem Chapel in St Catharines\, Ontario. The Salem Chapel was an important centre of abolitionist and civil rights activity\, and was the cornerstone of a growing community of African-American refugees from the United States. The most famous and celebrated member of the church was Harriet Tubman\, who lived in the area from 1851 to 1858\, and led many fugitives to freedom via the Underground Railroad (UGGR) to St. Catharines\, Ontario.\nSalem Chapel was designated a National Historic Site in 1999\, and is marked outside by several historical markers and a bust of Tubman. The heritage value of this church resides in its exceptional associations with the anti-slavery movement and the early black community to which it bears witness\, as illustrated by the church with its auditory-hall form\, typical of early African Canadian churches. A provincial historical plaque to Tubman was joined by a civic heritage marker concerning the building. Since then\, the national Historic Sites and Monuments Board has erected two federal plaques: one to the chapel as a national historic site\, the other to Tubman as a national historic person. Come join us to to appreciate this important historic monument.
