Land We Live On: Fish Leather Wallet Workshop

A unique opportunity to gain a better understanding about First Nations history, language and culture.

Join us in learning how to make your very own fish leather wallet!
The ocean is very important and vital for Coast Salish communities, and many have ceremonies or cultural practices surrounding the ocean as well as the sea life. In the Squamish Nation, there is an annual Honouring the Salmon Ceremony to thank the fish and pray for their annual return.
Join us in learning the importance of salmon while creating your own wallet.

Intended for adults.
