SOLD OUT Nerd Nite Field Trip #4: Edmonton Cemetery Tour

Join Nerd Nite and the Edmonton Historical Board for a summer evening stroll into Edmonton’s past. On this field trip, you will learn about Edmontonians of yore – both plain and prominent. Edmonton City Archivist and public historian, Kathryn Ivany, will take us on a journey through our oldest cemetery. Established in 1886, Edmonton Cemetery was once located on the edge of the city’s limits. It contains the City’s oldest and most architecturally diverse monuments, and many of the City’s original settlers and founders are buried here, including Emily Murphy of the Famous Five.​ The group will meet at the Mausoleum on the north side of 107th Avenue. The tour will run rain or shine.​
