Know History visits the Squamish Lil’wat Cultural Centre
Know History is honoured to support the Squamish Lil’wat Cultural Centre in updating their beautiful space in Whistler, B.C. Interpretive Planners Vanessa Campoli – Williston and Elizabeth Todd Doyle joined our Director of Museum Services, Dean F. Oliver, as they walked through the galleries, spoke with ambassadors, and toured the cultural centre.
Our team asked lots of questions, heard many stories, and ate the very best lunches at the centre’s Thunderbird Café. The hospitality of the centre was incredible, and everyone made the KH team feel welcomed.
We are so grateful to have learned so much from so many wonderful members of the cultural centre and would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to: Mixalhítsa7 Alison Pascal, Deidre Potter, Seq Mallory, P̓áq̓emúl Shelby, T’ec Georgina, Gusdidsasame David, as well as Haláw̓ Brittani, Tsawaysia Dominique, Shixm’el’texw Jeremy, and Ńtsínemqen Uncle Bill.
