YouthLink Calgary - Youthlink Calgary Police Interpretive Center connects cops with kids. It’s much more than just a museum. Everyone is welcome, free of charge to discover what it takes to keep a city safe. With exhibits, personal interaction, workshops and even week long camps. 

Edmonton Neon Sign Museum - Often forgotten and under-appreciated, neon signs have newfound respect in Edmonton. These bright landmarks from the past have been restored and preserved for all to enjoy, through a unique partnership of volunteers, the city, and business. Together, they created the first of its kind in Canada: the Edmonton Neon Sign Museum.
