Cultural Learning Circle – Cultural Coexistence
As the Bow Valley becomes increasingly more diverse, how do we learn to live together to build a more thriving community? For this Cultural Learning Circle, we will bring together a panel of Stoney Nakoda community members and people who are Newcomers to Canada and the Bow Valley. We will dance, sing and share our arts practices. Then, we will talk about what brings us together, what unites us, what divides us, and how we can learn from each other and work together in a respectful way to care for the land in which we work, play and live.
