From Past. To Present. To Future.
Generous contributions from people like you are essential to achieve our goals of creating an experiential, community-engaged space that celebrates Niagara’s rich heritage and bright future.
Your donation allows us to:
Preserve and restore the John Brown House and surrounding outdoor structures
Connect with our surrounding community through outreach programming and events
Educate students and lifelong learners by providing experiential learning opportunities
Share the rich history of the site through research, tours, and programming
Expand our vision for The Homestead as an engine of progress and development.
Tax receipts will be issued for donations of $20 or greater.
The Brown Homestead is Niagara’s Homestead. Thank you for helping connect our community today with the stories of the past.
We are also seeking Loyalist period artifacts, family history photos and documents related to the Brown, Chellew and Powers families and other early Niagara families for preservation and display in our archive.
