The Agnes Etherington Art Centre and the City of Kingston have partnered with the Canadian Museum of History to display an original window from the first parliament of the United Province of Canada, which sat at Kingston General Hospital (KGH) between 1841 and 1844. The display aims to highlight the 175th anniversary of Kingston becoming the first capital of the United Province of Canada.

Researchers believe the window was installed in the main building of KGH (Watkins Wing). KGH was constructed in 1835, but it remained largely unused for several years before it was modified to accomodate the first Parliament of the United Province of Canada.

Queen’s University is also marking its 175th anniversary in 2016-17. Visit the to learn more about the celebration.
