The Nlha7kápmx people are among the original inhabitants of the Fraser, Thompson, and Nicola river valleys in southwestern British Columbia. Darwin Hanna will be speaking to the collection of traditional oral narratives, from over 20 story tellers, which have been passed from generation to generation for centuries.

Many of the stories Darwin will share were told in the original Nlha7kápmx language and have been carefully translated to retain much of the colour and detail of the original, including the rich dialogue so often missing in translations. It is their hope that through sharing these stories, they will inspire others to continue to create stories and to contribute to the cultural revitalization of Canada’s Native peoples.
