20 Jun July Long Weekend 2024 at the SLCC in Whistler

Join us on the July long weekend to connect with the heart of Whistler’s authentic Indigenous experience at the Squamish Lil’wat Cultural Centre in Whistler. We invite you to experience and connect with the living culture and spirit of Skwxwú7mesh and Líl̓wat7úl – the original people of the shared territory where Whistler resides.

Join a signature What We Treasure guided tour starting on the hour with a welcome drum song, short film, and storytelling throughout the Great Hall and Galleries. Admire and engage in learning in the two feature exhibitions: The Declaration of the Lillooet Tribes in Gallery 2, and Ta na wa Yúus ta Stitúyntsam̓ / skel7áw̓lh (The person who protects the land / Steward of the land) in Gallery 3 until Monday, July 1.
