Jane's Walks Kingston: Sick City: Unlocking the Secrets of Kingston's Medical History
Friday May 2nd at 10am
Meeting point: Outside of the Museum of Health Care- 32 George Street
Walk in the footsteps of some of Kingston’s earliest residents and arrivals as they engage in a quest for health care in the Limestone City. The story of the establishment of one of Canada’s oldest public hospitals, Kingston General Hospital and Queen’s University Medical School, is one full of success and sacrifice, triumph and tragedy. Join us for a fascinating look into the lives of those that lived, arrived and died here, as we unlock the secrets of Kingston’s medical history.
This walking tour is 1hr 15 minutes in length. The tour will stick to paved sidewalks, roads and paths, and allows for several places to sit at multiple stops.
