Now Showing: Heritage Winnipeg

Heritage Winnipeg is proud to have released our brand-new promotional video! The beautiful short film captures the majesty of some of Winnipeg’s finest heritage buildings, while succinctly communicating what we do as an organization. Designed to be shared on social media platforms, we hope the video will introduce a new audience to the importance of our built heritage. We would like to thank Jacob Markham, the talented young filmmaker who brought our vision to life. Please take a few minutes to enjoy the engaging video!
