Heritage Week 2010 to take place Feb. 8 - 15

Global Village

Heritage groups, museums, communities, schools, access centres and libraries in New Brunswick will celebrate the province's diverse heritage by hosting special activities during Heritage Week 2010, which runs from Feb. 8-15.

"In recognition of the 50th anniversary of the introduction of the global village concept, the theme of Heritage Week 2010 is "Global Village - village planétaire," Wellness, Culture and Sport Minister Hédard Albert announced today. "The theme will give New Brunswickers an opportunity to reflect on their shared experience of thousands of years of history, and to place that experience within a larger global context."

New Brunswick's Evolving Heritage:

Report on the Findings from the Heritage Colloquium on the Values and Attitudes of Young People towards Heritage
Cover of the Report on the Findings from the Heritage Colloquium on the Values and Attitudes of Young People towards Heritage

What do young people in their 20s think about heritage?
Do young people care about their past?
Will they choose to visit, learn about and invest in their shared history?

How these attributes manifest around heritage is an important question for the heritage community to think about. This was the underlying motivation behind the Heritage Colloquium on the Values and Attitudes of Young People towards Heritage.
