A special storytelling experience will be taking place at the Estevan Public Library on Feb. 25 with the arrival of teachers and students from the Bert Fox Community High School of Fort Qu’Appelle, who will engage a local audience in an aboriginal storytelling event.
The event, part of the celebration of Aboriginal Storytelling Month, entitled the Blanket Exercise, is an interactive workshop designed to examine the history of Canada in relation to First Nations people.
“We are proud to welcome students from Fort Qu’Appelle, Eraine Croucamp, Leeza Currin, Tomika Pinary and Mercedes Tupone and their teacher Sheena Koops, as well as elder Alma Poitras to Estevan as they share with you this unique historical presentation. We encourage the Estevan community to come and participate in the workshop,” said Victoria Utman, the adult programmer for the library.

the event may be obtained by contacting Utman at the library at 306-636-1621.
