Everything you wanted to know about Native People…But never had the chance to ask….
with Alfie J. Fishgap (Coast Salish Nation in BC) & Todd Jamieson (Oneida Nation near London, Ontario)
7 p.m. Cold Creek Conservation Area. No charge.
Enjoy an evening by the fire sipping on Douglas Fir tip Tea along the Humber River and participating in an intimate discussion with Todd and Alfie. Ask questions on any subject related to Native People in Canada. Having spent the last four years presenting Aboriginal Art, Culture & History to students from grades 3 to 12 they have found that adults have many questions too. This is your chance to bring both worlds together through discussion, and interaction. Bring a lawn chair.
