Celebrate National Indigenous History Month
The city of Vancouver is on the traditional territories of the Musqueam (xʷməθkʷəy̓əm), Squamish (Sḵwx̱wú7mesh Úxwumixw) and Tsleil-Waututh First Nations.
102.7 THE PEAK encourages our listeners to recognize and celebrate the unique heritage, diverse cultures and outstanding contributions of First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples.
Celebrate and learn by joining events featuring traditional drumming circles and art workshops, reading books and listening to stories, and by enjoying the taste of traditional dishes!
CELEBRATE:
Indigenous Tourism BC
Like you, many Indigenous tourism operators are preparing for a summer that includes careful gathering and exploring in BC. With travel by BC residents opening between regions and the prospect of domestic travel returning, your ongoing support of Indigenous tourism operators in BC helps to ensure we are all ready to celebrate when the time is right.
