The Musqueam people have lived on the South Coast for thousands of years. Their traditional territory occupies what is now Vancouver and its surrounding areas.

VHF and Musqueam Indian Band have developed a pilot project bus tour. Hop on a bus to explore several sites around Vancouver which hold particular significance to the Musqueam people. Learn how these sites were used historically and what makes them important. You’ll also learn how these sites are used now in modern Musqueam culture. As the bus travels between destinations you’ll learn from Musqueam guides about traditional practices, arts and crafts, songs, legends and even some personal stories.

Come experience the stories and history passed down by Musqueam Elders that tell an important piece of the history of Vancouver.

For more information and tickets please visit the Vancouver Heritage Foundation.
