Join us for an indigenous film night!
Thursday November 14, 2024
The Methow Valley Interpretive Center and Room One are co-sponsoring an indigenous film night to honor Native American Heritage Month
What: “FISH WAR”
When the state of Washington made it illegal for tribes to fish for salmon in their usual and accustomed places, it was a declaration of war. FISH WAR follows the tribes’ fight to exercise their treaty-reserved fishing rights. A landmark court case in 1974 would affirm the tribes’ treaty rights and establish them as co-managers of the resource, but the fate of salmon in the Pacific Northwest still hangs in the balance.
Come learn about this important fight for salmon and tribal rights and gain a local perspective.
When: Thursday November 14th. Doors open at 5:30pm, film starts at 6:00pm
Where: The Twisp Valley Grange
Who: Co-sponsored by Methow Valley Interpretive Center and Room One
Admission by donation. All donations will go to support Homestream Park (our local public park dedicated to salmon and the indigenous Methow People).
