Lac-Brome Museum: A Long History and a Bigger Future [Video]

Lac-Brome Museum: A Long History and a Bigger Future

It all began at a picnic in August 1897, on a farm in West Brome, Quebec. The event was the centenary of the first land grant made in Brome Township. The outcome was the Brome County Historical Society, which was incorporated on March 9, 1898, and which has since worked diligently to preserve the past for future generations. Today, the BCHS maintains a number of heritage buildings which comprise the newly re-named Lac-Brome Museum. The museum tells the stories of those who have called this area their home over the centuries. With many projects and unique fundraising ideas, the work of the BCHS is a testament to the founders of our region and, as we strive to bring pieces of our local heritage back to life, it is our hope that current and future generations will be able to enjoy and learn from the museum, its archives and its keepers of the past.

Jeremy Reeves was curator at the Lac-Brome Museum from 2018 to 2021 where he led multiple exhibition and development projects. He was notably, co-editor of the major bilingual “Wood & Wheeler” exhibition catalogue. He is now undertaking doctoral studies at Bard Graduate Centre in New York City where his research interests focus on the cultural and artistic history of early modern European arms and armour. Jeremy earned a Master of Philosophy in Archaeological Heritage and Museum Management from the University of Cambridge (Darwin College) and completed a dual BA at SciencesPo Paris and Columbia University where he studied history and art history.
