Since 1947 the Arctic Circle has brought together friends who share a lively interest in the Canadian north for monthly presentations by members and guests.

The Circle’s membership includes many of Canada’s most distinguished arctic researchers, as well as those with a more informal interest in the north.

This site will introduce you to the organization and its members, and to one of the most fascinating regions of our planet. Enjoy your visit, and come visit us at our next gathering.
