Indigenous Storytelling

Look forward to a personal and educational tour of indigenous culture and history with Joe, the Dene guide and Aurora hunter himself. In two hours, you will learn more about the traditional life of the Dene as Joe recounts his childhood with his grandparents. The tour includes a walk through the indigenous exhibition at the Prince of Wales Heritage Museum, where Joe interprets the exhibits in relation to his life as an indigenous person in the modern world. You will also gain insights into the impact of the Residential School Tragedy on Indigenous people and their challenges on the path to healing and reviving their traditional way of life and culture. The tour concludes with a Q&A session with Joe, who will also talk about cultural protocols to promote respectful interaction with indigenous people.
