The Musqueam Indian Band and the Fraser River Discovery Centre Society have released a proposal to create a Learning Place where people can gain an “understanding of Indigenous heritage [and share] information about the teachings with all of those in the community of the traditional territory.”
The Learning Place is expected to be a permanent exhibit in the FRDCS, and the details about what will be showcased will be developed by the MIB, FRDCS, and other potential partners.
Mark Rizzo, Chair of the FRDCS, says the Society has worked with the MIB for many years and wants to educate and inform the public about the stories of the Fraser River.
