The Historic Doiron House in Dieppe will open in June, but they are still in need of a few specific antique pieces.

In an effort to help replicate the period when Joseph Doiron and his descendants lived in the house, they are looking for artifacts and furniture dated between 1840 and 1910.

The items needed are:

Small plant tables

Small coffee tables

Chairs

Cast iron cauldron

Butter churn

Baby cradle

Spinning wheel

Barrel

Milk can

If you have one or several of these items and would like to donate them to help preserve the collective memory of Acadian heritage, please contact Sonya Babineau by March 4th at sonya.babineau@dieppe.ca or by calling 877-7831, so that we may pick up your item and give it a second life at the Doiron House.
