The Emma Lake Kenderdine Campus was opened in 1935 by the University of Saskatchewan and Fine Arts head, Augustus Kenderdine. Located in the Heart of Saskatchewan and the boreal forest, the campus serves as a site for innovative credit based courses and creative public programming. Prized for its mature forests and secluded lakeside location, the site has become a yearly destination choice for numerous creative souls around the world. The Kenderdine Campus is here to serve your academic and personal journey.
