Speaking Pictures With Sesemiya Tracy Williams

Speaking Pictures invites Indigenous elders to come and speak to the public about photographs that highlight the stories, histories, and landscapes of the North Shore. This program takes place on Sundays near each solstice. The changing of seasons is marked with gathering, storytelling and the sharing of food. The seasonal changes invite us to reflect on the past and grow into the future.

In June we welcome Squamish Nation weaver Sesemiya Tracy Williams.

Light snacks, coffee, and tea will be served.

Your RSVP will guarantee you a seat at the event

Curated/Hosted by Joelle Johnston, Indigenous Liaison
