Join the Chilliwack Chamber of Commerce, Chilliwack Cultural Centre & 3 Crows Productions to Honor, Acknowledge & Bring Awareness to Truth and Reconciliation Day 2024.During our September Chamber Connections we will witness the mesmerizing, Dallas Yellowfly & Alysha Collie, tell the story of ‘Qwalena’ – The Wild Woman Who Steals Children!
This is a unique and scary theatrical multimedia storytelling performance. The purpose of this performance is to promote anti-racism, create awareness of the Indian Act and the intergenerational impacts of Residential Schools while strengthening communities through education.
By blending oral tradition, multimedia, mature content and a bit of humour, Yellowly & Collie hope to promote an understanding of present day impacts of the Indian Act and how Indigenous Peoples across Turtle Island are trying to break the cycles of oppression caused by Residential Schools.
3 Crow Productions is a unique group of Indigenous Educational Storytellers dedicated to increasing awareness of culture, history and experience from an Indigenous perspective.
Light Appetizers will be served PLUS each guest will be gifted a Unique Chilliwack Chamber Orange Shirt.
