Roots in Two Villages an Ocean Apart: A Conversation with Elder Larry Grant

A Joint Program Presented by Chinese Canadian Museum and the Museum of Vancouver.

Join us for a conversation with Elder Larry Grant on cultural identity as he reflects on his journey of being Musqueam and Chinese. As a knowledge keeper and hən̓q̓əmin̓əm̓ language instructor from the Musqueam community, Elder Grant will discuss the value of cultural anchors and family histories in understanding and reconciling the deep connection between people and place.

Photographs and clips from the documentary “All Our Father’s Relations” will be shared, as featured in the companion exhibitions A Seat at the Table: Chinese Immigration and British Columbia hosted by the Chinese Canadian Museum and Museum of Vancouver.
