We are right across the street from The Habitation, the Cradle of Canada. Our historic building is located at 3551 Granville Road, in Port Royal, Nova Scotia. It is a building rich in history and beloved by our local community. We share the neighbourhood with Parks Canada Port Royal National Historic Site, home of The Habitation, and the Schafner Point Lighthouse. Granville Road follows the scenic Annapolis Basin from Granville Ferry to Victoria Beach. Our Hall serves these communities, as well as Granville Beach, Port Royal, Karsdale, and Port Wade. With recent upgrades and improvements funded by a New Horizons for Seniors grant, our Hall is open all year round. We have regularly scheduled Programs and Special events. Our Hall relies on volunteers for its maintenance, program development, and financial support. Want to get involved? Send us a message or email and we can help you get started!

We had such a wonderful Sunday afternoon at our Paper Quilling Workshop! We missed a couple of participants who had to leave before the photo was taken.

A heartfelt thank you to Roxanne for preparing and teaching this workshop. You could hear a pin drop at times — everyone was completely focused on twirling paper and creating these beautiful cards.

Do you have an idea for a workshop you’d like to teach or attend? Tell us in the comments. We’d love to help make it happen!

👻 The Coffee That Poured Itself

It was a foggy October morning at the Hall — the kind that makes the Bay disappear into a grey blur. Marian had come in early to set up for Community Coffee. The lights flickered once (as they do), and the coffee pot sputtered to life.

She turned her back for just a moment to lay out the muffins… and when she turned around, the carafe was full. Completely full.

“Well,” she said, hands on her hips, “I suppose our ghost likes it strong.”

By the time the first guests arrived, the smell of coffee filled the air — rich, warm, and just a little mysterious. Nobody saw who made the first pot that morning. But the regulars swear it always tastes best on Halloween week.

So come join us this morning for Community Coffee — good company, great treats, and maybe… just maybe… a cup brewed by someone from beyond. ☕👻

$2 Hall donation recommended; costumes are optional.

🎹 Two Pianos, No Rodeo — What a Night! 🎶

We had a full house at Lower Granville Hall last night for Two Pianos, No Rodeo, and what a wonderful evening it was!

From the delicious pear and rosemary signature mocktails to the elegant charcuterie served in w**e glasses, every detail helped create a wonderfully intimate atmosphere. And, of course, the world-class piano talent of Mike Boguski and Bob Wiseman made it an evening to remember!

A special thank you to NIKIAN Farm for generously donating the pear juice and rosemary for our signature mocktail. It was delicious, and we’re so grateful for your support! 🍐🌿

Another special thank you to Gary Ewer for tuning our piano. We don’t think we’ve ever heard it sound so good!

And a huge thank you to all our behind-the-scenes volunteers who helped bring this event to life. These evenings take a lot of hands and hearts, and we couldn’t do it without you. ❤️

Now we have a question for you…

Should Lower Granville Hall host more intimate music events like this? Different musicians, different styles, and more evenings spent enjoying great music in our little corner of the world?

Let us know in the comments! We’d love to hear what you think.

We would like to thank Digby Signs Inc. for creating this beautiful new event board for us as well as a new building sign and background piece for our Comfort Centre and AED sign. This project has been in the planning stage for several years, and seeing the final result is absolutely magical.
