We have a few tables remaining for community resource partners at the 2026 Pokaiks Commemorative Walk and Gathering. By hosting a table, our community resource partners provide our attendees with access to support, information, and resources—especially those that further the journey of truth and reconciliation and foster healing and inclusion.

If you know of an organization or agency that would benefit our Walk and Gathering attendees, please share their name so that we can provide more information and extend an invitation to host a table. Hosting a table is free, and we supply the tables, chairs and linens.

📅 Date: September 30, 2026

📍 Location: Contemporary Calgary, 701-11 St SW

⏰ Time: 12:00 - 5:00pm

Please contact Kathy at [email protected] or by phone/text at 587-228-0967.
