Thursday, February 22: Salish Singing and Drumming Spring 2018 Workshops
Join instructor Russell Wallace, award-winning composer, producer, and traditional Lil’wat singer in a workshop to learn social songs, drumming and dance. Recently, Wallace was a part of the “powerhouse” ensemble featured in Marie Clements’ musical documentary The Road Forward. The film “connects a pivotal moment in Canada’s civil rights history — the beginnings of Indian Nationalism in the 1930s — with the powerful momentum of First Nations activism today.” Wallace currently works and teaches at the Native Education College, where he is the Cultural Coordinator.
