Explore Richmond Hill with your Passport to Culture and you could win big
Richmond Hill is full of cultural experiences, but sometimes the best ones aren't always the most obvious. Beyond the well-known museums, galleries, and festivals lies a deeper layer of the city waiting to be explored.
This year, why not make it your goal to get to know the city better by discovering hidden gems and new experiences?
The Passport to Culture is a year-long digital cultural passport that encourages residents, newbies, and visitors alike to explore new experiences and connect with the arts, heritage, and events that give Richmond Hill its character.
Get to know Richmond Hill
Each stamp in the passport represents a type of cultural experience rather than a single location, so you can choose from a variety of activities.
The passport is accessible to anyone with a mobile phone and offers plenty of free and low-cost options. You can access it by visiting the Richmond Hill website or scanning the QR codes posted at participating locations.
Each time you visit a site, event, or program, you can scan the Passport to Culture QR code on the posted signs to collect your digital stamp – easy peasy!
So much to explore
Where will your explorations take you? Perhaps the Richmond Hill David Dunlap Observatory, where you can attend stargazing programs, tours, and live history experiences.
Maybe to a festival like ArtWalk or Moonlight Movies, or a show or class at the Richmond Hill Centre for the Performing Arts.
Once you have all your stamps, you can enter an online contest for a chance to win the City of Richmond Hill Cultural Prize Pack, which includes unique local experiences, a night at a hotel, and other cultural surprises.
The passport runs all year long, which means you can explore at your own pace and make the most out of days off, weekend outings, and spontaneous adventures. As long as your stamps are all collected by the contest due date of Dec. 1, you'll be entered.
Grab your friends and family and get ready to explore large-scale community celebrations, intimate creative experiences, and everything in between as you collect the digital stamps that could allow you to win big.
Get started today by visiting the Richmond Hill website.
