Our Campaign is Complete!

Visit the new Indigenous Learning Centre and Revitalized Ska-Nah-Doht Museum!

Download Campaign Impact Statement September 23 2026

This project has been a major positive step forward for the Lower Thames Valley Conservation Authority, the community, and the Indigenous / Conservation Authority relationship, and has helped to build meaningful relationships between Indigenous and settler communities now and in the future.

The completed Indigenous Learning Centre project provides a venue for community engagement in Indigenous cultural heritage and environmental learning.

The Indigenous Learning Centre project and new revitalized museum galleries ensure the continued vitality of the Indigenous and Environmental learning experience.

This project has addressed asset and structural issues at the Longwoods Road Conservation Area Resource Centre.

More revenue generated from the use of the new Indigenous Learning Centre hall will ensure sustainability – diversifying revenue sources for Longwoods Road Conservation Area programs.

The Next 50 Years …

Now programming capacity, community needs, and staff  have opportunity to grow with the new Indigenous Learning Centre and revitalized Ska-Nah-Doht Museum!

 

DONOR TESTIMONIAL

Dr. Ron Williamson

Thank you to Ronald Williamson who has generously donated $125,000 to this campaign!

“I am so pleased to contribute to the campaign to enhance the facilities at Longwoods Road Conservation Area and Ska-nah-Doht.  It has been a centre for natural and collaborative Indigenous education for half a century and is the embodiment of the life lesson that natural and cultural heritage are inextricably linked.  This significant complex deserves our support.”
