Friend of Washington's Environment, 

You’re invited to A Majestic Matriarchy on Saturday, June 14 from 6:30-8:30 p.m. at St. Joseph Parish!

Before this event, we are hosting Netse Mot: A Gathering Meal from 5:00-6:30 p.m. A Majestic Matriarchy is presented by Se’Si’Le, an Indigenous-led nonprofit in Washington State and is supported by a coalition of NGOs and faith-based partners. 

What: A Majestic Matriarchy, Honoring the Southern Resident Orcas
When: Saturday, June 14. Program from 6:30 - 8:30 p.m. (Optional Netse Mot: A Gathering Meal from 5:00 p.m.)
Where: St. Joseph Parish. 732 18th Ave E Seattle, WA 98112

The event is being held during the 19th annual celebration of Orca Action Month. This year’s event will focus on Indigenous women to comfort, celebrate, and bring attention to our Southern Resident orca relatives. Native peoples have a deep affinity with the matriarchal lifeway of our majestic Resident relatives who rely on the older females for stability, especially in times of crisis. A grave crisis is now upon them, and their existence is imperiled. Join us to listen, learn, and be inspired by the heartfelt words, visions, and voices of Indigenous women leaders.   

Tickets are available on a sliding scale. Indigenous Peoples may attend free-of charge. Space is limited so be sure to reserve your tickets now!

Sincerely,

Rein Attemann (he/him)
