Indigenous Storytelling

Presented by Sask Polytech Library

For Indigenous people, storytelling is both a gift, and a very old custom, sanctioned by the people to teach, entertain, and remember.

Sask Polytech Library, with the support of the Indigenous Students' Centres, will be hosting Indigenous Storytelling events. These events are sponsored by Library Services for Saskatchewan Aboriginal Peoples (LSSAP).

This year we will host several in-person events and one live Zoom event. As part of our ongoing efforts associated with Indigenization and Reconciliation of our academic programs and in support of our Indigenous Student Success Strategy. All event details can also be found on our Indigenous Storytelling event page.

All Sask Polytech staff and students are welcome to join us at these events. Please arrive early to secure a spot. If you are unable to attend, recordings of the events will be available at a later date.
