Living Breath Foods Symposium

Join the 13th annual “Living Breath of wǝɫǝbʔaltxʷ” Indigenous Foods Symposium! The annual event draws over 300 people from the UW campus community, regional tribal and urban Indigenous communities, and throughout the US; Canada; Mexico; and Aotearoa, New Zealand. The symposium is a signature event for the UW Intellectual House and has become an important venue for bringing together people from diverse communities and organizations who share the same commitment to protecting Indigenous homelands and the environment. It serves to foster dialogue and build collaborative networks as Indigenous peoples strive to sustain cultural food practices and preserve healthy relationships to the land, water, and all living things. This year’s theme is “Generational Food Sovereignty: Nurturing our Sacred Relationships.”

Your registration includes continental breakfast and lunch with traditional Northwest Coast foods prepared by Indigenous chefs on the two days of the event, May 2 and May 3.

UWRA will sponsor registration fees for UWRA members who register through this page only.  All registrations are for both days. You may choose to attend only one day.
