Organizer
Kwanlin Dün Cultural Centre
Situated on the banks of the Chu Nínkwän (Yukon River), the Cultural Centre is a place where we celebrate the heritage and contemporary way of life of the Kwanlin Dün First Nation. As our ancestors did for thousands of years, we welcome visitors from near and afar to gather in our cultural home to share stories and experiences.
