About the event
Indigenous and non-Indigenous people are invited to come to Airdrie to hear Elders from across Treaty 6 & 7 Territories and the Métis Nation of Alberta Region 3 to speak at five different events.
Our second talk is on September 9 when Elder Phillomene Stevens from Îethka Stoney Nation will be sharing her stories and teachings.
Due to the nature of the talk the Elder recommends ages 14 and over. The talk may include personal stories that attendees may find unsettling. A trained Trauma Support Worker will be available if anyone needs support.
