Language in the Library : Learn and Speak hul'q'umi'num' at VIU Library on Fridays

Coast Salish lands and communities are living libraries. From living libraries stem Indigenous language and story. Please join Jane Alcorn, Penelakut, and Patricia Geddes, Librarian and Coordinator for Indigenous Initiatives, to learn together from living libraries for a welcoming hour of introductory hul'q'umi'num' language and story at VIU Library. Anyone interested in listening, learning and speaking hul'q'umi'num' is welcome to attend these sessions.
