2025 Sinixt Canoe Journey: Nelson Stop
The Canoe Journey in June 2025 is a powerful assertion of the belief that Indigenous peoples of the region are stewards of the river and the salmon—one of their first foods. This journey highlights the vital connection between their language, culture and the natural environment. Join the Sinixt paddlers as they make their way through Nelson. Public events include a community paddle across Kootenay Lake (June 16), keynote and poetry event (June 16), mural tour (June 16), Indigenous plant workshop (June 17), and a film screening of Dirt Relations (June 17).
Some of these events have limited capacity. Reserve your spot here.
