Family Practices and Oral Learning: A family night for all ages

Family Practices and Oral Learning: A family night for all ages

Date: Wednesday, September 29, 2021 
Time: 6:00 – 7:15 pm 

You and your family will hear storytelling, humour and traditional teachings from an Elder and community leaders, on the eve of Orange Shirt Day. Residential schools left a deep and lasting impact on traditional Indigenous family structures and systems. Many Indigenous communities are now focused on the importance of language revitalization and strengthening cultural and traditional practices. This interactive and engaging evening will leave you with laughter and curiosity. 

Featuring:

  • DerRic Starlight, Gemini-nominated entertainer, and puppeteer from TsuuT’ina Nation

  • Crystal Manyfingers, Kainai First Nations member, author and 2020 Faculty of the Year from Bow Valley College
