Chloe Dennis is a trained Public Historian and the current Exhibition and Collections Manager at the Bytown Museum - Ottawa's community museum. She holds a Bachelor of Arts in History and Master of Arts in Public History from Carleton University, and is committed to lifelong learning. She is passionate about local history and community.


Chloe will share insights into the institutional history of the Bytown Museum, how they marked the 200th anniversary of Bytown this year, and their latest temporary exhibition on until April 2028. As well, Chloe will give a brief overview of Ottawa's history including the area's Indigenous history and first peoples, to canal construction, the lumber industry, Bytown's violent reputation, and the rebrand to the City of Ottawa.

... to stimulate thought, interest and participation in activities at a time in life when it is easy to become complacent and self-centred.
