The Historic Sites Association of Newfoundland and Labrador (HSA) is a non-profit charitable organization lead by a volunteer board of directors, with a mandate to present the province’s history and heritage. 

Some of the HSA's many projects include: the Provincial Heritage Fairs, Manning Awards and Bartlett Lecture.  HSA provides support for the National Historic Sites in this Province through a partnership with Parks Canada.

Projects are funded by revenue generated from sales at the Heritage Shops.  This retail operation also supports the mandate by presenting the Province’s culture through a wide variety of local art, craft, gifts, and books.
