Event Details:

Join the Prince of Wales Northern Heritage Centre (PWNHC) and Montreal singer-songwriter Nadine Neema for the launch of the audiobook of her award-nominated, Journal of a Travelling Girl on April 22, 2023.

Journal of a Travelling Girl tells the story of an eleven-year-old girl’s adventurous journey by canoe through the ancestral lands of the Tłı̨chǫ People to attend the signing of the Tłı̨chǫ Agreement in 2005, a historic event in the Northwest Territories.

Inspired by true events, this story was written at the request of John B. Zoe, Chief Negotiator of the Tłı̨chǫ Agreement, as a way of teaching the Tłı̨chǫ youth about that landmark achievement.

Join us on Saturday, April 22 from 1:30 to 4:30 pm:

• 1:30 to 2 pm: Tłı̨chǫ Drummers and Feeding of the Fire
• 2 to 3:30 pm: Readings by Nadine Neema, short film, and musical performance by Nadine

Tea and bannock will be available in the Café after the event.

This event is free of charge.
