Calendar of events

On Saturday, June 14, join us for a special day of reflection, storytelling, and celebration, presented in collaboration with the Stalew Arts and Culture Society. Together, we’ll honour the rich cultures, histories, and lasting contributions of Indigenous Peoples who have lived on this land since time immemorial.

Theme: Storytelling

Experience the power of oral tradition as Kwantlen Elders share stories of their community’s history, cultural teachings, and deep connection to the land. These important voices help us reflect, learn, and build deeper understanding of the Kwantlen First Nation, on whose traditional territory the Fort stands.

Featured speakers: Hazel Gludo, Karen Gabriel, and Fern Gabriel.
