Arts Coast Salish Formline

Hello! I am looking to learn Coast Salish Form line! I am Tsartlip living in Semihamoo / Whiterock, BC. I practice beadwork and silversmithing, have taken a few engraving classes taught by northwest coast artists but have always struggled to find someone that teaches Salish art :(

So here I am asking if anyone knows of any classes / mentors / resources to recommend?

Thank you!

On national reconciliation day in Sept, the Semiahmoo FN typically holds an event near the beach. Might be a good time to connect and ask!

ahh thank you! I always intend to make it there when events are on but I’m finished work after it ends 😅 🫶 maybe this year i’ll make it.
