Thursday, July 20   6:00 - 9:00 PM

Join APPI in a private event to gather and explore life through the diversity of First Nations' and Métis peoples' histories, cultures, experiences, and perspectives, local to Indigenous life in the 
Beaver Hills, or Edmonton region. The stories, music, artwork, and text in the experience come from local Indigenous perspectives and voices, gathered through engagement with local Indigenous communities, historical documents, and research. Shared knowledge is timeless. It does not just exist in the past. It is here today.

While this is an APPI private event, friends and family are welcome to register and attend.  The $10.00 registration rate is for all attendees.

Virtual Coffee Break

Wednesday, June 15  12:00 - 1:00 PM

Given the interactive nature of the Virtual Coffee Break, this activity may be deemed to be structured, but the expectation is that members adjust the time reported to reflect the portion of time dedicated to learning, versus the social component.

Participants are strongly encouraged to participate via camera if at all possible, as it enhances the experience, and allows participants to use visual clues to limit speaking over one another.
