Date & Time: Thursday, May 1, 2025, 12:30-1:30 pm
Location: Kwanlin Dün Cultural Centre Longhouse (1171 Front Street, Whitehorse)
Join us in the Longhouse at the Kwanlin Dün Cultural Centre on Thursday, May 1! Come check out the student projects, learn about Canadian heritage, celebrate learning, and cast your vote for the Park’s Canada People’s Choice Awards.
The Yukon/Stikine Regional Heritage Fair is part of the national Heritage Fairs program, a bilingual educational initiative that encourages students to explore an aspect of Canadian heritage in a dynamic and captivating learning environment.
Students use the media of their choice to share their learning about Canadian heroes and legends, milestones and achievements – and then proudly present the results of their research at a public exhibition. Projects are reviewed by volunteer judges and awarded prizes for excellence and participation.
No matter how they participate, the Fairs give students a voice to tell their own stories in their own ways. Their enthusiasm, creativity, and passion make the Fair a highlight of the school year!
The Yukon/Stikine Regional Heritage Fair is organized by the Yukon Historical & Museums Association in partnership with the Yukon Heritage Resources Board and Parks Canada, with funding support from the Government of Yukon, Department of Education and City of Whitehorse.
