Shelburne is a historic town located on Nova Scotia's South Shore, approximately 200 kilometers southwest of Halifax. Founded in 1783, the town grew rapidly as a settlement for Loyalists fleeing the American Revolution, briefly becoming one of British North America's largest communities.

Today, Shelburne maintains its maritime heritage through its well-preserved historic waterfront, featuring 18th-century architecture and a working waterfront that reflects its shipbuilding past. The town's cultural landscape is shaped by its seafaring history, with notable historic sites including the Shelburne County Museum and the Black Loyalist Heritage Centre, which tells the important story of Black Loyalists who settled in the area. The town continues to embrace its cultural heritage while serving as a center for local arts and crafts, with several galleries and workshops showcasing Maritime artistic traditions.
