Join us in celebrating 20 years of community at Bison Courtyard, a place where people live, work, and connect within the heart of Banff National Park. This special birthday celebration is centered around the unveiling of four murals by renowned Indigenous artist Joseph M. Sánchez.This milestone event celebrates the courtyard’s two-decade legacy shaped by the residents, businesses, and community members who have contributed to its vibrancy, creativity, and spirit of connection, while honouring the deep connection between the Bison and Indigenous traditions.
Enjoy an afternoon of live storytelling, performances, artisan showcases, and local food. It’s a chance to reflect, connect, and celebrate the spirit of the Bison — a symbol of hope, restoration, and unity.
