The Sncəwips Heritage Museum’s “Bannock and Tea” is an open to the public
event focused on creating a space for all community members to interact
with one another, share stories and traditional foods in order to create a
better sense of an inclusive community. This event is centred in what is
quickly being redeveloped as WFN’s “main street” as a site for the people
to learn, grow, and interact. Besides the sharing of stories from all
perspectives, the Sncəwips Heritage Museum will also be showcasing some of

history from both personal and community perspectives.
