WELTH TIMA KEXWUSEM (CULTURE BRINGING PEOPLE TOGETHER) DANCE GROUP

The Squamish Nation Education Department established the dance group in 2004. The goal was to instill in our children a sense of pride in our Culture. The Education team teaches children between the ages of 6-13. The children learn our songs, dances, legends, language and protocol.

Our performances showcase that we are a living Culture. We perform in our traditions regalia of Cedar, wool, buckskin and paddle. We share our songs and Dances that come from our stories, from our waters, our lands and from our brothers and sister of the animal kingdom. The respect for our Culture and ancestors has instilled in our children a pride and desire to share all they have learned.

Admission to the performances is included in your donations to the SLCC. Guests are welcome to make additional donations to the performance groups directly to support their culture, communities and performances.
