September 30 is National Day for Truth and Reconciliation and Orange Shirt Day. This is a day to recognize and commemorate the legacy of residential schools, which more than 150,000 First Nations, Métis, and Inuit children were forced to attend beginning in 1920 under the Indian Act. The first residential school was established in 1831, and the last residential school closed in 1996.
The Town of Canmore welcomes all to gather in recognition of the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation on September 30.
This day is an important opportunity to reflect on the history and ongoing impacts of residential schools, honour Survivors, and commit to meaningful paths of reconciliation.
Date: Tuesday, Sept. 30, 2025
Location: artsPlace (950 8 Avenue, Canmore)
Time: 11 a.m. – 3:30 p.m.
The day will include workshops, film screenings, and a panel discussion. Together, we will create space for learning, listening, and building stronger relationships with Indigenous Peoples and communities.
This event is free and open to the public. Everyone is welcome.
