Activities & Community Events

The Town of Prescott is proud of its arts, culture and events scene. As we continue to grow and develop, we will be adding new and supporting existing events to our community.

Prescott is currently home to many events throughout the year. Whether it be news from our committee or council meetings, municipal events, BIA or special events put on by local community groups or organizations, we want to share it with you.

Truth and Reconciliation Week is September 26th-30th, 2022. This is a national program open to all schools across Canada. This year, our theme is “Remembering the Children”. For more information about the available programming taking place this week, visit: https://nctr.ca/education/trw/
