Events and Featured Experiences

The SLCC welcomes guests to see the new Lil’wat Story Pole carved by Master Carver Jonathan Joe, Apprentice Redmond Q̓áwam̓ Andrews, and Todd Edmonds, at the entrance to the SLCC on Lorimer Road in Whistler, where it now stands alongside the Squamish House Post carved by Xwalacktun and Brandon Hall of the Squamish Nation in 2023.

Open May 10 – Spring 2025

This exhibition shares the history of the Chiefs of eleven communities that came together to sign the Declaration of the Lillooet Tribes, on May 10, 1911. These St̓at̓y̓emc Nation communities including the Lil’wat Nation share the same culture and language with Southern, Northern, and the Lakes dialects, and they gather together each year to celebrate Declaration Days.

The SLCC is proud to share authentic art and storytelling through the Go Whistler Tours App – created by Tourism Whistler and the Resort Municipality of Whistler. Thoughtfully curated by SLCC Curator Mixalhítsa7 Alison Pascal, the Art & Storytelling of the Sḵwx̱wú7mesh and Líl̓wat7úl – walking tour weaves its way through the Village to nine locations that are culturally significant to the Squamish Nation and Lil’wat Nation starting at and returning to the SLCC.
