About Mi'kmawey Debert Cultural Centre

“When we visit Debert we feel the spirit of our ancestors and our pride in ourselves, and our history is renewed and strengthened. It is this sense of renewal and strength that we want for our people”…. MDCC Elders' Advisory Council Mi’kmawey Debert Cultural Centre (MDCC) is a charitable, not-for-profit First Nations organization mandated by all thirteen Nova Scotia Mi’kmaw Chiefs. MDCC is dedicated to sharing, protecting and exploring the stories and lives of the Mi'kmaq, past and present. Once built, MDCC will be an experiential cultural centre in Debert, Nova Scotia, providing imaginative and meaningful year-round programming for visitors of all ages. A primary space for the Mi'kmaq to ask their own questions and tell their own stories, the Centre will protect a sacred ancestral landscape and will play a central role in transforming the heritage, culture and tourism sectors from one where Mi’kmaw people and stories are largely invisible to one where Mi’kmaw history and culture are protected and shared as pillars of the heritage and tourism sectors. Mi'kmawey Debert is slated to open in the Spring of 2025.
