We connect people to the stories of our city by helping Edmontonians research preserve interpret and advocate for our heritage. The Edmonton Heritage Council has undertaken a number of initiatives that explore Edmonton’s past and present and look toward the city’s future with the goal of providing Edmontonians a deeper understanding of who they are. The FIRE Grant program (Funding Indigenous Resurgence in Edmonton) provides funding assistance—up to $10 000—to Indigenous (First Nations Métis and Inuit) individuals and organizations to support projects that help tell important stories about our community. The FIRE grant program is designed by Indigenous people for Indigenous people. This program supports Indigenous peoples’ inherent right to self-determination and cultural resurgence and we hope to provide folks with the support and resources to advance their brilliant work. The Edmonton City As Museum Project tells the best stories Edmonton has to offer from the perspective of Edmontonians. A stepping stone to an eventual bricks and mortar city museum the Edmonton City As Museum Project uses the web to preserve and present Edmonton’s urban heritage: the people places things and moments that make us who we are. Far from a dusty archive the Edmonton City As Museum Project—or #ECAMP—offers a colourful look at this multifaceted city. The Edmonton Heritage Network facilitates connections between Edmonton’s heritage stakeholders. It aims to break down silos build relationships between heritage organizations and facilitate projects that respond to shared needs.Edmonton’s heritage organizations tell the story of the city from different perspectives. The Edmonton Heritage Network aims to unify these narratives to join perspectives that may seem disparate but together make up the fabric of our urban history. Edmonton Maps Heritage is a collective active and ongoing 'mapping' of the city’s heritage. It anticipates broader public involvement in continually adding more content on Edmonton's experience and culture historically culturally and artistically. We hope that users will connect with the site visually and functionally but above all find that the content enriches their sense of their city and community.
