For the third consecutive year, six local cultural attractions are partnering to offer Saultites a value-added family pass for March Break.

Marie Public Library during March Break (March 9, 2024 to March 17, 2024).

Each member of the Cultural Corridor is also organizing free programming for pass holders. Highlights include:

    •    Hogan’s Homestead taffy making at ECNHS
    •    Springtime art classes at the AGA
    •    FUNeral Scavenger Hunt at the Sault Museum

A full programming calendar can be found online or printed schedules are available with the passes, or at all sites.

“Come to the corner, walk the block, and experience family fun at six local cultural attractions. This once-a-year partnership allows up to six family members to visit us, multiple times through the week,” says Kathy Fisher, curator, Ermatinger Clergue National Historic Site.

“We often hear from community members that they’ve never taken the time to be local tourists and visit the Sault’s cultural sites. This pass is an affordable way for families to experience local culture and get a taste of the programming that our organizations frequently offer,” says Jamie Hilsinger, executive director, Canadian Bushplane Heritage Centre.

Passes can be purchased online on the Ermatinger Clergue National Historic Site website.

If purchasing your pass on line, you can pick up the pass at your first attraction stop during the March Break.
