Water Wednesdays Event Series

The St. Louis River Alliance is excited to introduce Water Wednesdays, a series of talks and events revolving around deepening understandings, connections, and stewardship of the land and our beloved St. Louis River.

The Alliance will kick off the series this Wednesday, March 23rd from 7-8 p.m. via Zoom with Ricky DeFoe presenting 'An Indigenous World View'. Ricky will discuss cosmology, philosophy, and values and actions that lead to institutions, and the challenges to re-spiritualize a de-spiritualized community.
