Burnside Heritage Foundation - Imagine Video

The Foundation has prepared this video to introduce visitors to the rich heritage under their stewardship. The Imagine theme forms part of the interpretive message of the Foundation encouraging people to visualize the prehistoric cultures of the region as they may have once lived in the context of the environment. A visit to the museum and participation in the Foundation's Boat Tour will illustrate the physical evidence of what we know of these peoples and their inhabitation of this region.
