International Networking Night

What we do

The Connection is an Intercultural association operating in Medicine Hat. Year-round our social events and inclusion programs provide Canadians and international people (newcomers) a platform to meet and build meaningful relationships. Our local volunteers provide English-language-learners with the opportunity to learn the English language through our mentoring program and informal events.

Who we serve

Our events and programs are open to all interested in connecting and learning from our local and international participants. Whether you are a local person, immigrant, international student, temporary foreign worker, a short-term visitor to Canada or anyone new to town. Let’s get you connected.
