Connecting Edmonton to the stars & 1960 to today, the planetarium continues to captivate. Now fully redeveloped and blending a mix of function with maintaining the original look & feel, we’re thrilled the planetarium will remain a pillar of our communities. #yegHeritage

When you get word that the [reportedly] oldest grain elevator in Canada is scheduled to be demolished, you do what any sane person would do -- get in your car and set off on a four day road trip covering nearly 3000km across the prairies... Day One: youtu.be/tJmvXd5rIRE

SUNDAY: the RiverValleyAlliance is holding a free nature walk in #yeg’s MacKinnon Ravine. I’m co-hosting this walk w/ Suzanne McAfee; she’s 1 of many #yeg citizens who helped save the ravine from being turned into a freeway in the 1960s & 1970s. Register ➡️: eventbrite.ca/e/trekthetrail…

While many tried valiantly over the last few years to find a way to prolong the life of this little #yegheritage gem, the City has proceeded with demolition. There is a chance to preserve the memory of the Graphic Arts bldg - albeit a teenier version. Learn more and donate! 👇
