Guided by Jamaican-born storyteller\u00a0Patlee Creary, Co-Founder and Executive Director of\u00a0The StoryBridge Network, newcomers from Selkirk, St. Andrews, and St. Clements have spent the past months crafting personal stories about their journeys to Canada.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The newcomer&#8217;s journey was likely long and winding, challenging and rewarding all at the same time. And when we share it, we learn we all have something in common. That bonds us and creates a community,&#8221; says Creary.<\/p>\n<p>This inspiring event, supported by\u00a0The PRHouse\u00a0and the\u00a0Manitoba Arts Council, celebrates the voices of new residents and the communities that have welcomed them. Join us to hear their powerful stories and experience the connections that storytelling can create.<\/p>\n\t\t<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"2024 | Holiday Alley - Newcomers&#039; Storytelling Cafe\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ziPeMFVaxDE?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\t\n\t<p>HAPPENING IN 2025<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/holidayalley.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/t_VerticalSeparator.png\" alt=\"t_VerticalSeparator\" itemprop=\"image\" height=\"8\" width=\"130\" title=\"t_VerticalSeparator\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/holidayalley.ca\/index.php\/activities\/calendar\/\"  target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"  itemprop=\"url\">\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/holidayalley.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/the-burn25-square.png\" alt=\"the burn25-square\" itemprop=\"image\" height=\"366\" width=\"366\" title=\"the burn25-square\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\n\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t<a href=\"https:\/\/holidayalley.ca\/index.php\/activities\/calendar\/\"><strong>STRAW SCULPTURE BURN<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\nSat.
