Upcoming Events

  • “What an enjoyable evening! It was equally exciting for me to listen to Maria Campbell. Love her books and her oral sharing. I hung on every word of Bailey’s Crow story. The Little People, Harry Daniels, so much I have learned. My dear mother in law , Clara often told us many of the things I heard tonight. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!”

    Laura Delorme

  • “Marilyn was a lovely host as always and each storyteller gave us a glimpse into some superstitions and intuitions that us Michif practice. I loved how many I knew and remembered from my own family, made me miss those nights and camp outs at grandmas Delphine’s. I had my tea leaves read a few times during back to Batoche Days and also remembered the story of the salamanders which is one we still tell around the fire at Batoche. Harry Daniels stories will live forever.“

    Jenn Altenberg

  • “Kookum and Mooshum Rose are always good for a giggle. Maria was fire and the younger storysharers are shining lights. I especially enjoyed Bailey and the Crows. I’m happy Lennie fell fast asleep beside me during that one. A thriller for sure. Excellent night can’t wait for the next one.“
