Syilx Language House proudly partnered with five fluent Elders for this 1st Volume of our annual book of recordings. This volume contains over 6 hours of Elders' Salish audio stories, captíkʷł, prayers, history, cultural knowledge and word lists, shared freely by our Elders so our communities may hear & learn our language for generations to come. Updated editions will follow.
