Kamloops celebrates diversity of cultures during National Indigenous Peoples Day
KAMLOOPS — With music and dancing Riverside Park came to life for National Indigenous Peoples Day.
“It’s just bringing all of our cultures together and sharing because we all have different traditions,” said Vicki Michaud, Family Services Manager with Kamloops Aboriginal Friendship Society. “We have different stories, we have different languages. So it’s bringing us all together and sharing all that, and sharing it with everyone.”
The local event takes place every year on June 21, organized by the urban First Nations groups in the area.
