About this event
Métis Crossing Cultural Centre Tickets
The Métis Crossing Cultural Centre offers you a genuine look into Canada's Métis heritage at Alberta's first major Métis interpretive site. Located on 688 acres of prairie land that was originally settled by Métis families in the late 1800s, this cultural centre preserves the river lot farming system and traditional way of life that shaped Alberta's early development.
Your ticket gives you access to both indoor exhibits and outdoor trails where you can explore educational displays about Métis history, walk through natural landscapes, and visit the farmyard areas. The centre showcases how Métis people lived and worked the land, with wildlife paddocks and preserved buildings that tell the story of this unique Canadian culture. You'll discover the impact of Métis communities on Alberta's growth through interactive displays and historical artifacts.
