Wheatland Regional Library chosen as Culture Days Hub for 2024

Wheatland Regional Library was selected as a 2024 Culture Days Hub to receive special funding from SaskCulture to host the 2024 Truth and Reconciliation Speaker Series. In partnership with workshop facilitator and artist Jasmyn Albert.

“Jasmyn is passionate about sharing her culture and Nehiyaw world view. It was a natural fit to partner with her for the Culture Days Hub this year” says Desirae Munro, Branch Manager, Wheatland Regional Library.

Jasmyn Albert is a mother, wife, and proud Plains Cree of Metis and settler descent. Albert grew up learning many cultural teachings from her kokum and elders. She has been sharing these teachings for over a decade in her work as an educator, artist, and workshop facilitator.

Wheatland Regional Library will be hosting a number of Jasmyn’s Teepee Teachings workshop in September and October in recognition of the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation as part of Culture Days 2024. Everyone is invited to attend an event in their area.
