Join us as we come together to highlight our diversity, inclusion, elders and youth. Learning from the past and looking forward to the future with three events:
June 21 is National Indigenous Peoples Day = a day for all Canadians to recognize and celebrate the unique heritage, diverse cultures and outstanding contributions of First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples.
This is an opportunity for non-Indigenous Canadians to learn about Indigenous peoples and their cultures — and take steps toward equality. We encourage everyone to attend events wherever you may be. In Armstrong Spallumcheen there are several options:
Splatsin First Nation | Wed. June 21 2023 | 8:30am - 4:00pm | Splatsin Ball Park Schedule | Poster | Website
Okanagan Indian Band | Wed. June 21 2023 | 5:00am - 4:00pm | Komasket Park Website

On June 27, Canadian Multiculturalism Day honours the many cultural communities that help build a strong and vibrant Canadian society. Take this opportunity to celebrate the diversity that enriches us collectively and reaffirm your commitment to equity, inclusion, and mutual respect.
In our community, we will be hosting a FREE celebration with food, live music, art and cultural presentations. Multiculturalism is one of Canada’s great strengths. We encourage you to share your experience, your thoughts and your story with others and listen to theirs at this event.
