Take a deep breath and splash into our feature exhibition, Bluewaterland: Dive into the Depths.

Our Lake Huron coast and the St. Clair River have been important gathering places since time immemorial. Bluewaterland plunges you into that history through artifacts, photographs, and fascinating stories. Learn about some of Lake Huron’s most famous shipwrecks, and try out nautical navigation techniques while discovering how the Great Lakes were charted.

Never before seen home video footage explores how locals and tourists have enjoyed our blue waters. Discover the unexpected when we highlight topics like Lake Huron’s surf culture, or the rumrunners that smuggled alcohol during Prohibition.

A highlight will be the Huron Glow Collection, with pictures taken by members of the community of the gorgeous sunsets that make Lake Huron an international sensation.

You won’t get wet, but you will dive into the depths!
