50 things to see in Huron County this Summer Huron Coun ty Cultural Mapping creativehuron.ca LAKELANDLOCAL The “50 Things to See in Huron County This Summer” map is a result of a one year cultural mapping project done by the County of Huron. The project began in June, 2011 with funding assistance from the Province of Ontario with the goal to complete a comprehensive inventory of all of the cultural assets located in Huron County. To date we have inventoried over 1,500 cultural assets in the cultural database. The number of cultural assets available to residents and visitors confirms that we have a large and vibrant cultural community in Huron County. The wide-range of cultural assets in the database including everything from parks, heritage buildings, art galleries, tractor pulls, plowing matches and everything in-between says that Huron County really does have something for everyone, whatever their interests. The cultural database created for the project is now the cornerstone of a new Huron County website – www.creativehuron.ca. On this new site you can search the database, using multiple criteria to locate the cultural assets you’re interested in, watch videos about Huron County’s heritage or read the full report from the Cultural Mapping Project. The plan is to continue to build on the database and the website over the next year, establishing a “one-stop” place for everything arts, culture and heritage in Huron County. We hope you’ll take the time this summer to celebrate our local cultural by visiting some of the 50 locations on the map or by visiting www.creativehuron.ca and creating your own list of 50 things to explore in Huron County.

LAKELANDLOCAL

The “50 Things to See in Huron County This Summer” map is a result of a one year cultural mapping project done by the County of Huron. The project began in June, 2011 with

funding assistance from the Province of Ontario with the goal to complete a comprehensive inventory of all of the

cultural assets located in Huron County.

To date we have inventoried over 1,500 cultural assets in the cultural database. The number of cultural

assets available to residents and visitors confirms that we have a large and vibrant cultural community in Huron

County. The wide-range of cultural assets in the database including everything from parks, heritage buildings, art galleries, tractor pulls, plowing matches and everything

in-between says that Huron County really does have something for everyone, whatever their interests.

The cultural database created for the project is now the cornerstone of a new Huron County

website – www.creativehuron.ca. On this new site you can search the database, using multiple criteria to locate the cultural assets you’re interested in, watch videos about Huron County’s heritage or read the full report from the

Cultural Mapping Project. The plan is to continue to build on the database and the website over the next year, establishing a “one-stop” place for everything arts,

culture and heritage in Huron County.

We hope you’ll take the time this summer to celebrate our local cultural by visiting some of the 50 locations on the map or by visiting www.creativehuron.ca and creating your own

list of 50 things to explore in Huron County.

Thank you to the Project Steering Committee and to our Project Funders
