Due to her sold-out lecture in May, Liz Hammond-Kaarremaa will return to give a repeat performance at the Courtenay and District Museum Rotary Gallery. If you missed the first lecture, this is your chance to attend.
This illustrated presentation will give a brief overview of Mutton’s story (Mutton was the name of the only known woolly dog whose pelt is at the Smithsonian). Genetic research has been combined with Oral History from Elders, weavers and Knowledge Keepers to reveal the Coast Salish Woolly Dogs’ cultural significance.
