Introduction

TTO and our partners are currently working to build and open the Kenhtè:ke Language and Cultural Centre. This exciting new Net Zero centre will be located on Salmon River Road in Tyendinaga Mohawk Territory, and will be home to classrooms, a teaching kitchen, an art studio, and a gathering space for up to 150 people for programs, events and celebrations. The site will also include a replica traditional longhouse and outdoor learning opportunities.

Funding for the Centre:

Funding for this state-of-the-art centre has been provided by the Government of Canada through the Green and Inclusive Community Buildings program (GICB), through the Mohawks of the Bay of Quinte who have provided the land, and through TTO donors and supporters. As the costs of construction have increased since our initial planning, fundraising is still ongoing.
