Join Chelsea Moore and Eddie Knibloe from the Buffalo Maritime Center at the Niagara History Center at 2 p.m. Wednesday as they revisit the historic Bicentennial Voyage of the Erie Canal Boat Seneca Chief in 2025. The voyage of the replica canal boat began in Buffalo last September, and continued to New York City commemorating the Erie Canal Bicentennial.<\/p>\n

Stops at the various communities along the canal, including Lockport, featured welcome ceremonies, a symbolic \u201cGathering of the Waters,\u201d hands-on programming, and an immersive onboard exhibit highlighting not only the canal\u2019s history and impact but also the traditional boatbuilding skills and craftsmanship that brought the Erie Canal Boat Seneca Chief to life.<\/p>\n
