Join Storytellers of Canada June 5th to 9th, 2019 for their conference in Fredericton, New Brunswick! The theme for 2019's conference is Weaving Baskets of Knowledge - Akonutomahtimok: Askomiw Latokonasuwol Kcicihtuwakonol

The weavers are the storytellers and the baskets of knowledge are the stories. Stories educate and give us joy. They are intergenerational. Stories are a defining part of all cultures, a primary way we make meaning, and a fundamental component of what makes us social beings. What baskets will you share?
