Métis Event – Connecting to our Ancestors
January 19 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Attention Métis families!
Golden Ears Métis Society (GEMS), Fraser River Indigenous Society (FRIS), and Métis Nation BC (MNBC) invite you to join us to discuss connecting to our Métis Ancestors. This information session will take place on January 19, 2025 from 2:00-4:00 pm at the One Way Club Society, 22270 North Avenue, Maple Ridge.
This event is an excellent opportunity for those who have Métis heritage, or think they may have Métis heritage, to learn more about ways to connect to their culture and community, and for those in the community to share their family stories.
After the presentation, there will be time to learn and share stories with the community over light refreshments. MNBC Citizenship staff will be available to answer questions about applying for Citizenship and the Citizenship process. GEMS invites you to bring copies of your ancestral photos to display on the Ancestor wall. (You will take the copies with you when you leave.)
Come celebrate Métis culture with music and prizes.
Please RSVP your attendance to ensure we have enough refreshment available for attendees. See the RSVP email below:

We are looking forward to seeing you at the event!
