Wanuskewin Heritage Park is a nonprofit First Nations historic and cultural center that is operated by the Saskatchewan Wanuskewin Indian Heritage Incorporated organization. The park is a designated National Historic Site of Canada and is named for a Cree indigenous word that translates as "being at peace with oneself." It is a living history museum and cultural complex that preserves more than 6,000 years of Northern Plains peoples history and culture, located on the site of a traditional tribal gathering place. The 600-acre site showcases 19 living history sites related to the Blackfoot, Atsina, Cree, Assiniboine, Dakota, and Saulteaux tribes, opened to the public as a museum facility in 1992. It still serves as a gathering site for present-day First Nations spiritual uses and welcomes visitors of all ages for educational heritage programming, including gallery exhibitions, guided tours, and tipi sleepovers.
