Welcome to First Nations Storytellers, where the rich tapestry of Indigenous culture in Southern New Brunswick comes alive. Founded in the fall of 2021 by visionary co-founders Dave Smith and Gail Bremner, our journey began with a shared recognition of a glaring gap: the absence of authentic Indigenous narratives in our region.
Driven by a passion to bridge this void, Gail and Dave meticulously crafted a business plan that not only envisioned but demonstrated the viability of our mission. And thus, in the fall of 2021, First Nations Storytellers was born.
Our inaugural experience took place on June 1, 2022, marking the commencement of our endeavor to weave together the threads of Indigenous heritage, culture, and teachings. Since then, we've embarked on a transformative journey, curating immersive experiences that celebrate the diversity and resilience of First Nations peoples.
Our mission is to create economic opportunities for Indigenous people in New Brunswick while creating and delivering authentic and interactive Indigenous tourism experiences for residents, students, and visitors.
We aspire to foster an understanding of Indigenous culture through storytelling.
First Nations Storytellers recognizes and affirms that we operate on the unceded and unsurrendered ancestral lands of the Wolastoqiyik, Peskotomuhkati and Mi’kmaq, respectively known as Wolastokuk, Peskotomuhkatik and Mi’kmaki. These lands are covered by the Treaties of Peace and Friendship first signed with the British Crown in 1725, and then recognized and affirmed by Canada in section 25 and 35 of the Constitution Act of 1982. We invite you to learn about these agreements and how they protect the livelihood and cultural practices of the original inhabitants of this land you call home.
