A Pint of History with The Tattooed Historian

EVENT DATE: Wednesday, November 5 @ 7:00 pm
Event Details
Step into an evening of insightful conversation and historical exploration at The Irish Harp. This special event focuses on the theme of WWI: Remembering & Honouring, bringing together one Canadian and one American perspective to delve into compelling aspects of the conflict. Topics will include the significance of Niagara Camp, the intriguing Polish connection, the United States’ later arrival on the scene, and other fascinating elements that shaped the war’s narrative.
Attendees are encouraged to participate actively: write your questions on slips of paper to be drawn at random, or join in as questions are posed directly to the audience. Whether you’re a history enthusiast or simply curious, come prepared for thoughtful debate, enthusiastic cheers, and lively exchanges as our hosts navigate the complexities of this pivotal era.
Admission is by donation, with all proceeds benefiting the Niagara-on-the-Lake Museum’s expansion project—a meaningful way to support the preservation and sharing of local history.
This event is proudly presented in collaboration with The Tattooed Historian, the NOTL Museum, and The Irish Harp. We look forward to welcoming you for an enriching and memorable gathering.

The world of World War I historians has no voice more unique than John Heckman. Also known as the Tattooed Historian, John has had long experience with teaching, and creating Living History impressions for other genres, including the Civil War, before he started to really devote his maximum efforts to World War I. John is very active online, hosting successful a Podcast series, Twitter, and Facebook social media accounts. John’s take on history is very fresh — he brings modern sensibility, personal viewpoint, and soldier-level context, to his interpretation of historical topics. John has also been a great friend and partner to the U.S. World War I Centennial Commission, participating in several of our key events, including parades, commemorations, and the design rollout of the National World War I Memorial in Washington DC.
