Selkirk breaks ground on Tenth Street Campus Indigenous Gathering Space

Selkirk College has broken ground on the Tenth Street Campus Indigenous Gathering Space at its Nelson campus. The gathering space, which is being developed in partnership with the City of Nelson and regional Indigenous nations, will serve as an Indigenous cultural gathering and ceremonial space for the community. Indigenous students at Selkirk will be able to use the gathering space to practice cultural wellness and traditions, explore food sovereignty, and learn from Indigenous voices. A ceremony for the official opening of the gathering space is planned for October.
