A Celebration of Our Cultural Heritage. Art and Quotations by Students of G.T. Cunningham Elementary School. Forward by George Littlechild. George T. Cunningham Elementary School, 1996. Review by S.A.M. McCue.
Visual symbols are a powerful and immediate connection to our cultural heritage.
The students who contributed to this book learned about First Nations history, culture, and art in a truly personal and meaningful way. This book is a celebration of art, culture, and families. We hope it inspires people of all ages to create their own family heritage collage. This book started out as a project to help students in a Vancouver school see the richness in their diversity. It began as an art project which would help them understand First Nations values and heritage and grew to include their own cultural and family backgrounds.
