Old Yeg Café part 1 - Dispelling Misconceptions

Are you interested in heritage preservation in Edmonton? Are you interested in learning more about the factors involved? The role of the City of Edmonton, developers, and citizens at large?

Heritage Forward! is pleased to announce the first in a series of public events designed to raise awareness of built heritage issues in the City of Edmonton. The first event is a panel discussion highlighting misconceptions surrounding the preservation of built heritage, and to create an open discussion about the ongoing threats and factors involved in heritage preservation. The event is free to attend, and open to all interested citizens.

The event takes place on Thursday, February 5, 2015 from 6:30-8pm in the Jefferson Room at the Prince of Wales Armouries Heritage Centre, 10440 - 108th Avenue. The panelists include Chris Dulaba (founder, Callidus Development), Shirley Lowe (built heritage advocate), David Percy (Old Glenora Conservation Society), and Mike Swick (Director, Hanscomb Limited). The event will be hosted by Danielle Metcalfe-Chenail, Edmonton's Historian Laureate.
