Burnaby celebrates NIPD: Tea, Bannock and Bookmarks

Join Sḵwx̱wú7mesh Nation Matriarch, Wendy Nahanee, for an afternoon of tea, bannock, culture, and connection. Let’s get together for hands-on learning. Wendy will share teachings on one of the Four Sacred Medicines (the cedar tree), including its cultural significance, traditional uses, and connection to wellness and land-based knowledge. Participants will also learn how to create a cedar bark bookmark with Knowledge Keeper Leonard Williams and learn about the upcoming National Indigenous Peoples Day celebration with the City of Burnaby on June 20.While this event is free, space is limited to the first 60 participants.Location: Bob Prittie Metrotown Library, Community RoomLearn more: Burnaby.ca/IndigenousPeoplesDay
