Heritage Abbotsford Society’s mission is to collect, record, preserve and share the stories of Abbotsford. The Society a registered charity which depends on government grants, private donations and fund-raising efforts to provide its services to the people of Abbotsford.
Some of our services include providing programming and tours to the public. Through our Heritage Interpretive Program, we provide educational tours of our heritage site, walking tours throughout the community, digital presentations, permanent and temporary historic exhibits including the “The River People and the Land: Living within S’ólh Téméxw” exhibit, and cultural heritage events such as Indigenous Arts and Culture Days. As a part of sharing Abbotsford’s stories, we assist in the preservation and restoration of numerous built heritage assets, such as the 1930’s South Poplar Schoolhouse, and the 1910 BCER Upper Sumas Train Station. We provide programming and events that brings together the diverse community that is Abbotsford.
