Welcome to Mînî hrpa

Mînî hrpa (pronounced Mih-nih-pa) is an Indigenous cultural center based in Banff, Alberta. We are dedicated to welcoming newcomers, visitors, and local communities to the ancestral homelands of the Iyarhe Stoney Nakoda peoples.

We create spaces for cultural exchange and understanding by building healthy relationships in reconciliation and community care. Our center hosts Indigenous-designed and led cultural pop-up events throughout the Bow Valley, co-creating dialogue and programs focused on arts, culture, and land-based learning. We also foster Indigenous awareness in support of sustainable tourism.

Join us in celebrating the rich heritage and vibrant culture of the Iyarhe Stoney Nakoda peoples.
