Incredibly interesting and informative experience. The whole centre is extremely well thought-out and presented. This is so much more than a traditional passive museum experience. The building is not large, in fact I found it deceptively small. I was surprised by how much there was to experience inside. There is so much information and the vibe is so friendly and peaceful that it's definitely worth making this part of your Fort Edmonton Park visit. We benefit so much from seeing and hearing authentic emic perspectives from non-dominent groups. Thank you to everyone who made and also to those who continue to make this experience possible. Would definitely return and would definitely recommend.
We will be back! We were there, for our first visit ever, on Truth & Reconciliation Day...it was PACKED, which was great to see! But because of the crowds, it was difficult to really see all the exhibits..so much fascinating information, but there were so many people great!! I vertically challenged! could not see all the exhibits & very detailed information panels. Coming back later this year. Amazing facility; the multi-media elements added so much to this visit. HIGHLY recommend!
Best place to explore past living standards. The structures are really nicely maintained. Really kid friendly environment.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
Incredible indepth experience. I learned a lot from this museum/experience. I highly recommend checking it out while you're at fort ed.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
Impressive entrance, helpful staff. Loads of amazing quotes and information. Unfortunately it focuses mainly on the positives and doesn’t highlight the atrocities that indigenous people endured over the years. If not now, when? People need to know. Truth & reconciliation. And because it edited our history so pointedly I think the title of the expo ‘Indigenous Peoples Experience’ is presumptuous.
Amazing! They have a building with artifacts and culture about the indigenous people. Very insightful.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo wait
The Indienous Peoples Experience was beautiful, informative and engaging. The wonderful people who we talked to were full of knowledge and more than willing to engage and tell us stories and information. We could have spent the whole day but we wanted to explore the whole fort. I highly recommend checking it out.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNot sure
A well laid out centre displaying quotes from First Nations and Metis. New to Canada, I still have a lot to learn about its history, but this centre made me feel a greater understanding of culture and history, relationship with language and the great value traditions hold. Naomi was an excellent speaker, I felt blessed to have listened to her speak of her personal experiences and share perspectives. The gift shop has an array of beautiful hand made items.
UP FRONT You must visit this experience. This is a fully immersive multimedia presentation that will blow your mind. I learned so much about the indigenous peoples and their community. I was totally moved. The building was clean and has washroom facilities. There are lots of moments to enjoy and take in the information of the history of the indigenous people and a wonderful section about the Métis people. You could come here many times and learn something new each time. Not only is the presentation on the inside of the building amazing but the surrounding grounds have excellent interpretive trails and markers. My wife and I absolutely loved the whole experience and definitely recommend coming here.
Great use of technology to create a truly immersive experience. I didn't connect the name until it was explained to me, it's built from the viewpoint of Indigenous Peoples about their experiences and the impacts on their people and culture. Everyone should see it at least once.
