Nisqually Ancestral Teachings with Hanford McCloud

Hanford McCloud is coming to Oly AHA to celebrate the "It’s The Water" exhibit and share the importance of gathering, Tribal sovereignty, and the teachings of his ancestors.

McCloud was instrumental in the coordination of this year’s Tribal Canoe Journey, hosted at Nisqually, and he will talk about the importance of Canoe Journey to Coast Salish people.

McCloud is also an artist who weaves traditional Nisqually baskets and hats.

This event is free and open to the public. Tickets are not required, but registration helps organizers plan accordingly.
