The River Knows What It Needs

In October 2024, members of the Katzie and SFU communities gathered to learn from Elders, professors, and Land Guardians about caring for the River that is colonially known as the Fraser. The event was documented by graphic artist Adriana Contrea to create a many-eyed (Kelly, 2013) story about caring for the River.
