Join us at the Walker House for Paddy’s Pub Night and enjoy the live musical talents of Nuclear Vibes!

$10 cover charge at the door to support the musicians.

Every Friday night, the Walker House will open its tavern for a weekly pub night from 6:00–9:00 PM.

We’ll be featuring locally produced beers, wines, and ciders from many amazing Ontario-based businesses, allowing our community’s local flavours to shine.

Our tavern is run by a dedicated team of volunteers, and all proceeds go directly back into supporting museum operations, helping us continue to offer great programs and events.
At this time, we do not offer meals. Visitors are encouraged to bring their own food or enjoy takeout from our many wonderful local restaurants.

As part of the Kincardine Art Crawl, The Walker House Museum will be hosting Home: Here, There, & Everywhere, a community art exhibition exploring the different meanings and experiences of home.

We invite community members to explore and share their ideas of home through art. Home may be the place where you were born, the community where you live today, the traditions and cultures you carry with you, or the people who make you feel you belong. Through diverse perspectives and experiences, this exhibition celebrates the many ways we create connections
to place, family, culture, and community. Together, these stories reveal that home can be Here There & Everywhere.
