On November 8, 2023, the SCAA was the recipient of a 2023 Saskatchewan Heritage Award for their Archives Week Video Project 2022. The Heritage Saskatchewan award presentations took place at Government House in Regina.
ABOUT THE PROJECT
The Archives Week Video Project 2022 was created by our team to celebrate the annual SCAA Archives Week in a series of daily video clips whereby our members showcased their successes and achievements of the past year; and also displayed the hard work and dedication of archivists in preserving the vibrant history of the province.

THE CMMM ARCHIVES
The CMMM has been a member of the SCAA for more than a dozen years. When all of our archival materials came together under one roof, the SCAA Archives Advisor made a trip to Cut Knife to advise on its set up. They have continued to support us with information, recommendations, and at times, funding. We have participated in Saskatchewan Archives Week activities with Open Houses, digital exhibits, and blog posts focusing on local research. Our Resident Archivist, Lucille B. and many other Board members and volunteers have taken SCAA course work in a wide variety of archival topics.
The work of the SCAA in this province is vital to the preservation of local histories. The Cut Knife Museum and Archives congratulates the SCAA organization and all of the individuals involved with the Archives Week Video Project 2022 for this well-deserved recognition.
