Lease signing ceremony

Description

Join us as we celebrate a milestone in our quest for long-term sustainability.

The City of Edmonton has agreed to a 25-year lease assuring that we will occupy our historic hangar on Kingsway well into the future and allowing us to continue telling the story of this region’s important aviation history.

“People are excited about our future once again,” says AAM Executive Director Jean Lauzon. “We want to make sure we continue telling the story of the airfield which was in existence for almost 90 years and is the namesake of the new neighbourhood now springing up around us.”

Edmonton City Councillor Bev Esslinger, who represents the ward and worked diligently with the museum to help shepherd the new lease through city council and the administration, will represent the City at this ceremonial event.

You are invited to help us mark this event, and tour the museum to see all wonderful changes that are taking place. Attendance is free for this event. Light refreshments will be served.
