Following the storytelling, from 11:00 am to 3:30 pm, Vikki will guide you through a drop-in workshop where you can craft your very own worry doll using eco-friendly materials.

The abundance of these lands and waters, which enables us to live, work, and play here today, is a result of the past and on-going stewardship and advocacy of the Coast Salish peoples.
