[BCMA] Join us this Saturday for the Repatriation Monologues

[Moderated BCMA subscriber listserv]

Repatriation Monologues, featuring:

  *   Aaron LaMaskin
  *   Leia Patterson
  *   James McGuire
  *   Dakota Diablo
  *   Payel Laceese
  *   Chantu Williams
Presented in conjunction with The Work of Repair: Redress & Repatriation at the Museum of Vancouver<https://museumofvancouver.squarespace.com/work-of-repair>, this panel brings together voices reflecting on the complex, often deeply personal work of repatriation.
Moderated by Aaron LaMaskin, the conversation will focus on the Museum of Vancouver’s collaboration with the Tŝilhqot’in National Government to return over 60 ancestral belongings—the Nation’s first repatriation from the Museum, completed in 2024.
Through individual reflections and shared dialogue, the panel will explore the emotional and cultural impact of repatriation, the challenges of institutional change, and the ongoing responsibilities museums face in redressing colonial harm.
“Repatriation Monologues” invites attendees to consider what meaningful repair looks like—and how museums can support Indigenous sovereignty, cultural resurgence, and the return of stories to where they belong.
Please arrive early with your event ticket to view the exhibition.
