Know History at the 2025 MUSEUMS CANADA Annual Summit

Know History was proud to be a Sustaining Partner of the 2025 MUSEUMS CANADA / MUSÉES CANADA Annual Summit, a national conference that brought together museum professionals, historians, and cultural leaders from across the country.

We were especially honoured to have our own Dean F. Oliver, Director of Museum Services, deliver the keynote address: Think It Through: How Ideas Drive the Bus—a thoughtful and inspiring reflection on the role of big ideas in shaping museum practice and public history.

To cap off the week, we co-hosted the Closing Evening Event in partnership with Heritage Park Historical Village, where we celebrated new ideas, shared achievements, and the connections made throughout the summit. This year’s conference sparked rich discussions on enhancing visitor experiences, fostering meaningful collaboration, and celebrating cultural expression. We were thrilled to be part of these important conversations in Calgary.
