Exhibit Adoption Program
Heritage Park houses some of the finest examples of heritage buildings, architecture and exhibits in Western Canada. You can be directly involved in their preservation.
Adopt an Exhibit at Heritage Park
Preserving the Past
An annual symbolic adoption of your favourite Heritage Park building or vintage vehicle will help maintain it for years to come. Your adoption will go to the Heritage Park Foundation’s Endowment Fund. The interest earned from the fund is used to assist in the maintenance of the exhibits, vehicles and artifacts so they’ll be around for generations to come.
Exhibit Adoption Perks
