In 1952, a vision began to take shape in the heart of St. Boniface, Winnipeg, when a group of dedicated community members came together to create a space that would soon become the cornerstone of their neighbourhood. Their dream was simple but profound: to establish a place where the community could unite, grow, and thrive as one. And thus, Archwood Community Centre was born.

​

The centre's journey started on the grounds of what is now Archwood School, marking its first step in becoming a vital part of the community. Over the years, Archwood moved locations, adapting and expanding to better serve the ever-evolving needs of its residents. In the late 1990s, a significant transformation began, leading to the grand opening of a modernized facility in June 2001. With a rich history of growth and development, Archwood Community Centre continued to fulfill its commitment to the neighbourhood, becoming a beacon of unity, health, and support for all.
